Three years of shooting inside the Carnaval Sauvage of Brussels. “Carnival: a representation of disorder, of vital forces, of celebration, values without which the central social order is unbearable. The bears, the animals, the wild men, the spectres, the demons, the spirits of the dead, all the representatives of the underground people, the people of the margins: we are here and we are alive, the festival will pierce the city. Because it is funny. Because it is cool. Because it is beautiful. And because it is important.”
