"What beautifies the desert is that it hides a well somewhere," says Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's Little Prince. As one of the most fertile symbols in the writings of almost every tradition, the desert is often seen as the place of our origins, the place of our gods or demons. We go to the desert to seek visions, to commune with nature in its purest, wildest form and to find artistic inspiration. The photography of Jean Paul Bourdier captures beautifully the ethos of "finding more than we seek". His images of people situated inside a desert landscape shimmers like heat escaping from pavement on a hot afternoon. Bourdier aligns the body with the landscape, and renders the landscape onto the body of his subjects. His unique vision is never digitally altered and the camera captures the artist's exact vision. Bourdier's work is a reflection of his varied interests, as he is a Professor of architecture, photography, design, and visual studies at the University of California, Berkeley. An introductory essay by noted avant garde filmmaker (and Bourdier's wife and model) Trinh T. Minh-ha places his work in a grand tradition of the sensual and the extrasensory, and a scattering of Bourdier's poems add yet another level of aesthetic appreciation.
