"Patrick's work offers a mesmerising journey around the world in
search of the divine, offering a timeless portrait of people living
on the fringe, creating life on their own terms." - i-D For more
than 25 years, French photographer Patrick Cariou has traveled to
far out places around the globe, documenting people living on the
fringes of society and making a way for themselves. Whether
photographing surfers, gypsies, Rastafarians, or rude boys of
Kingston, Cariou celebrates his subjects as they are: peoples of
the earth who meet the struggles of life with honor, dignity, and
joy. Bringing together works from his groundbreaking monographs
including Surfers, Yes Rasta, Trenchtown Love, and Gypsies, Works
1985-2005 takes us on a scenic journey around the world, offering
an intimate and captivating look at cultures that distance
themselves from the blessings and curses of modernism. Given access
to these hermetic realms, Cariou presents a fascinating portrait of
resistance in a multiplicity of forms. The landscape plays a vital
role in Cariou's work, revealing how people live shapes their
identity and destiny in equal part. Whether following the waves,
living in the mountains, or surviving urban and rural poverty,
Cariou's subjects reval the importance of preserving one's native
culture at a time of Western cultural hegemony. The spirit of pride
and defiance comes alive in his work; each of the peoples portrayed
have found a way to survive despite the brutality facing them and
the earth alike.
