After a relaxing weekend you have to get back in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. But how would it be if people and traffic suddenly disappears? If you were the only one in the streets of Paris or New York?

The silence of the world, like a quotation, is suddenly endowed with an oppressive eloquence. Small intrusions are the true sparks here, because their disconcerting presence disrupts the majestic calm of the streets and squares. Are you guilty or a victim? The fate that governs these shots in a tangible way is not the result of decisions taken by metaphysical powers, but stems uniquely from the imagination of the two creators of these photos, Lucie and Simon.
