📷 Rare Pokémon photo project
Rare Pokemon is a photo project that began to emerge as an idea during Seine tour in October and it consists of portraits of people who hosted us in every city, whose faces I wanted to imprint, not allowing them to escape in time.
All portraits were caught in the morning before our departure.
This is the first part of the photo diary.
Jonas hosted us in Ghent on our day off.
This was shot in front of Jonas building just as he was leaving for work.
—— description + superpowers —-
-Jonas can be seen graciously dancing his way through the streets of Ghent, encouraging people to move freely and be happy (super power : when a Pokémon uses a dance move, the other Pokémon immediately uses the same move)
-Very friendly, easy to get drunk with.
-Sometimes wears a hell of mustache (+2 charm)
This is our wonderful host from Amsterdam - Felicia.
She's a promoter and a sound engineer at Butcher's Tears.
This picture was taken in front of the club, while we were packing equipment.

-Can easily transform into a Big Sister (doubles the power).
-She can smell good beer a mile away.
Fabien is owner of 'L' Elastic' bar from Strasbourg where Seine and Hold Station played.
(that evening we got so high that we barely made it to our beds.)
The portrait was taken in front of the bar in the morning just as we packed our stuff.

-This Pokemon can easily get you drunk and feel familiar and nice.
(doubles the ally Pokémon's speed of getting drunk)
-People mistake him for Super Mario (super vario) after rehab.
-Can unknowingly make a magical punch (gives all ally Pokemon super powers).
Martin organized a concert for Seine in his kitchen in Bremen.
Hands down probably the best human being we ever met.
This photo was taken in his garden during breakfast.

This extremely rare Pokemon from Bremen is an English and Spanish teacher, musician, and activist.
-At night he usually sleeps by the campfire, watching (while sleeping) for other people - ensuring they’re having fun. (powers up all ally Pokémon's special moves)
-Can easily transform his kitchen into awesome small concert venue.
Gregory is the owner of 'La Chaouee' in Metz, hosting bands and different programme during the whole week.
This photo was snapped in front of the club, as we were saying goodbye.

-This Pokemon has a tendency to surround himself with other great Pokemon - it’s his natural habitat.
-His great sense of humor and kindness instantly disqualify opposing Pokémon to use priority moves.
-Has an ability to immediately recognize and support talent.
Karim is the sound engineer that works in 'La Cantine de Belleville'.
This almost CSI portrait was taken in the garage of his building in the night that we arrived because I was scared that in the morning we maybe won't see each.

-This quiet and friendly Pokemon from Paris can handle a group of Pokemon (or a band) arguing for 15 minutes over parking spots. (reduces the amount of damage created by other Pokémon)
-Catching criminals and mastering sound.
It looks really a funny project and those portrait are simply wonderful ^_^
