Le tatouage est clé de lecture devant l’objectif. Un point d’ancrage dans le cliché autant qu’une fenêtre sur l’âme des sujets. On est happé par la puissance du regard, son absence de pudeur.

Intimités Burlesques

The photography of Bobby C. Alkabes, is akin to a peeping tom view through a key-hole into the intimate World of the tattoo aficionado. Her images have a timeless quality to them that, inexorably, lure the viewer in. The leitmotif, or under-lining thread being; a glimpse of a view at the tattoo bearers and their choice of the symbolic; the indelible language of art, etched into skin. The ’Intimités Burlesques’ project is part of an ongoing work, in progress, that aims to a series of expositions and books surrounding this many faceted theme.
