Jérôme Ferrière –Ibiza Facebook

Preview

In the early 1980s, Spanish Movida left a permanent mark of the young Jérôme Ferrière, a young man from South West France. When he was twenty, he roamed the planet, visiting tropical locations and learning to take pictures in Brazil. His idols were all mavericks with a spiritual side: Helmut Newton, Charles Baudelaire, Serge Gainsbourg, Keith Richards…

Drawn by promised pleasures of mind and body forbidden elsewhere, the young man landed in Ibiza in the early 1990s. The island is home to all the misfits of the earth, those who live on the margins of society. In Ibiza, everyone invents their own models and respects their own codes. Everything is spontaneous and deeply anti-bourgeois.

Between 2000 and 2010, Ferrière put together a unique collection of faces by photographing the people who live year-round in Ibiza, while mass tourism erodes the pioneering spirit of the island.
