"A slick study of skateboarding seesaws between dark and light.

The film is part of the HOW MANY BPM? project, a performance and installation series in which a skateboarder becomes human metronome as he rides back and forth on a ramp. The project was founded in 2014 at the Parisian gallery l’Hermitage by both Fernandez—co-founder of Berlin-based skateboard brand and art collective FLVR—and visual artist Iouri Camicas, who invite various musicians to create a sound universe to accompany each of the performances."

An artistic and collaborative project

"Roulez-roulez" is a participatory work on the initiative of Youri Fernandez and the FLVR collective.

Open frontier between arts' and skateboarding's universe, FLVR is a Franco-Berliner project with two aspects. FLVR "collective" links artists from various horizons on common projects (exhibitions, vidéos, happenings...). FLVR "series" is a skateboard brand that constantly evolves through collaborations.

For the future FLVR board inauguration (10/03/15), Youri Fernandez (visual artist) and Kevin Bucquet (bass player, compositor) will present a 7 chapters video-concert named "Fougère - recherches sensibles sur le skateboard". A selection of grounds presented on this website will compose the 3rd chapter which evokes the links between a skater and his environment.

An artistic and collaborative project through skateboarding

How to film skateboarding nowadays? 

Here is a proposition: from above. 

From this view we don't see much tricks, but it shows the relation between skateboarding and grounds.  (cumin)

The feeling of movement and it sound was a good material to make a sampled beat (audio and visual)  and compose something out of it. (curcumin)
