Full of tender moments and sizzling sex, they fall in love before a serpent strikes.
Mauritian artist Jean-Luc Soro's work is a fascinating and powerful juxtaposition of the absurd and the profound. Usually presented in black and white, his paintings capture the subtle shifts of light. Light is Soro's nemesis. Its fluctuating patterns can raise the level of an ordinary walkway or the surface of a pond into a stage where real mystery arises. He says: "I am not a great photographer, but I am an artist who works with light.

I was in the army for twenty years and there was no opportunity for me to study art."

After his accident in the early 1980s, Soro was diagnosed with cataracts and glaucoma and could no longer see a thing. He was told he needed immediate surgery to save his sight. Following the surgery, he was advised to avoid any further exposure to light. By the time he was told that he should not work with light anymore, Soro had already discovered a new language of light.
