Heads down in Paris

Sebastian Erras, a young photographer from Germany, has found a different and very interesting way to depict Paris. Instead of focusing on the “classics” - from the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame Cathedral, to the Arc de Triomphe and the Louvre, from the Champs-Elysées to Montmartre - Sebastian has looked down and photographed the floors at his feet.The resulting project, Parisian Floors, shows how much beauty is to be found even on the ground: tiles, mosaics or geometrical patterns become real works of art. And to remind us that these are in fact floors, Sebastian has “signed” every photograph with his feet.
