AIN'T GOT NO TROUBLES

The Ain’t Got No Troubles photo series by Matthieu Venot offers a poetic exploration of the city of Brest through color and light, focusing on the everyday architectural details. By capturing these ordinary elements of the city, Venot transforms facades, building angles, and urban lines into minimalist compositions, where vibrant colors and the interplay of shadows and light take center stage. 

Through these images, the city of Brest becomes a reimagined space, almost timeless, where each fragment of wall or roof, usually overlooked, becomes a work of art in itself. The blue of the sky, the pastel facades, and the soft contrasts reveal a city whose soul is rendered with a soothing lightness. 

The title Ain’t Got No Troubles evokes a sense of serenity and well-being, an invitation to feel the comfort of being at home, where troubles seem to stay outside. In these images, Venot shows us that the mundane can become a source of peace and beauty when we take the time to see it differently. It’s a tribute to simplicity and calm, where each architectural detail subtly expresses a sense of regained tranquility.
