Mother of Pearl

June 2024

My new photo book ‘Mother of Pearl’ is now available to order! This collection highlights the beauty of nature, from delicate roses and still life to the landscapes of Maui and Death Valley. Inspired by classical still-life painting and the Dutch Golden Age, I use digital photography and scanography to capture nature with a Renaissance-inspired play of light and shadow. I’ve curated my favorite pieces from 2017 to 2022 for this book. The hardcover edition measures 8 x 9 inches (20 x 23 cm) and includes 56 full-color images. After a long wait, ‘Mother of Pearl’, which was ready in 2023, is now available in my shop. 🌸

Highlighting the abstract aspects of human complexity within philosophical thought, "Non-Natural" embraces Non-Naturalism—a philosophical perspective that seeks to understand human nature across metaphysical, moral, and aesthetic dimensions, contrasting sharply with the reductionist thought prevalent in modern science and technology.

Centre d'Art Contemporain de Royan, France

Apr 1 - Jun 9, 2024

On the occasion of the celebration of the 110th anniversary of the birth of Aimé Césaire and the fortieth anniversary of his last collection moi, laminaire… , Captures presents a collective exhibition, imagined by Colette Césaire and supported by the Fondation Clément de Martinique.
Césairian poetry is put into dialogue with the works of three contemporary photographers, Juliette Agnel, Nicolas Derné and Xuebing Du.
Nous, laminaires  invites you to a walk through the natural landscapes of Martinique, a source of inspiration for Aimé Césaire's poetic writing. A collective journey, which reveals to us the deep self of the Poet, and also the authentic nature of this island and its people. Symbolic landscapes and duels: sometimes magnificent, sometimes catastrophic, sometimes both; sometimes energetic, sometimes destructive or nightmarish, sometimes both.

An eminently poetic nature. Martinique, a land of both suffering and hope.

Co-production of Tête Haute and Noire , Clément Foundation , Captures

Curators: Colette Césaire for Head High and Black and Jean-Marc Lacabe for Captures

In Bloom, Fotografiska Stockholm, Sweden

Group Exhibition, Stockholm, Sweden

Feb 17 - Jun 11, 2023

Just in time for all vegetation to start to come to life after winter hibernation, the new exhibition In Bloom opens at Fotografiska. 16 contemporary photographers are gathered here, all striving to understand and explore nature and man's relationship to it. The exhibition In Bloom is a symbolic, philosophical and poetic exploration of nature in photography and shows a glimpse of how photographers represent and work with it today. What all the artists in the exhibition have in common is that they find their inspiration in the green, regardless of whether they tell of pleasure and fragility, as in Xuebing Du's beautiful flower studies, of brutality and control as in Ori Gersht's violently treated flower arrangements, or of mastery as in Yan Wang Preston's controlled urban nature.

Junya Watanabe, COMME des GARCONS, SS 2022 collection

With a suggested soundtrack of Ryuichi Sakamoto classics, Junya Watanabe is off to Bhutan with his loungey SS22 menswear lineup. The COMME des GARÇONS vet often channels workwear cues for his MAN collection and though his new offering does uphold that tenet, it's filtered through a Buddhist lens; appropriate given Bhutan's religious background.

Watanabe was especially inspired by photographer Jamie Hawkesworth's documentation of a Bhutanese trip, mixing elements of Hawkesworth's series with works from a variety of international artists to create some inspired pattern play. Truckers jackets, short-sleeved sweaters, anoraks, sarouel trousers, and shoulder bags are graced with vivid imagery from the likes of Phannapast Taychamaythakool, Ang Tsherin Sherpa, Xuebing Du, and Marta Olga Klara, to name only a few. The all-hands affair really drives home the international feel.

Benedetta Bruzziches, Blooming Love, FW Limited edition 2021

BLOOMING LOVE, this is the name of the new capsule collection of bags resulting from the collaboration between Benedetta Bruzziches and Xuebing Du.

The jewel bags by Benedetta Bruzziches for A/W 2021 become a blank canvas on which Xuebing Du reproduces some of the shots of her photographic production. Those in which multi-colored roses appear caught in full bloom, so bright that they appear almost surreal, otherworldly. The play of light and shadow that is created creates a delicate, but at the same time sculptural effect. Like the shape that Benedetta Bruzziches has given to her luxury bags. Starting with her BB – the bag in homage to Brigitte Bardot – which now becomes a limited edition and shows off a wavy shape. Emblem, according to the designer, of the uncertain times we are living in.
