Suction Cups

Suction Cups by Simon Bereaud

Artist’s Statement

This picture is part of a project about love titled G.

Being an intuitive photographer, I like to allow some freedom of interpretation to a picture. When I took this one, I was merely fascinated about the aspect of my lover’s back after a traditional Chinese medicine treatment that involved suction cups and that had transformed her into some kind of a ladybug.
