Sasha Bezzubov and Jessica Sucher's, Sivananda Yoga Vacation , 40" X 55", C-Print, 1/7

Are you in the midst of an existential crisis, seeking out your very own Eat Pray Love experience à la Elizabeth Gilbert?  The New York based artist duo Sasha Bezzubov and Jessica Sucher come to the rescue with their fascinating photographs of spiritual tourism at Taylor de Cordoba.  The perfect inspiration to jump start your spiritual quest in a time of increasingly dire global uncertainty.

The gorgeous, color saturated series of large-scale photographs captures the delicate gray area between the observed and the observer when opposing cultures meet.  According to the gallery,  “The project results in distinct groupings: spatially astounding interiors, bizarre landscapes, and portraits of those who simultaneously appear both lost and found. The connecting thread is the visual strangeness and cultural collisions inherent in this phenomenon.”

The photographs are the result of the husband and wife team’s one year Fulbright scholarship award spent traveling through India, exploring the unique international communities that gather in a mutual quest for nirvana at ashrams, yoga centers, and meditation retreats.

The show runs through December 20th. Taylor De Cordoba is located at 2660 S La Cienega Blvd in Los Angeles, CA and is open Tuesday thru Saturday, 11am-6pm. For additional information, contact Heather Taylor at [email protected] or (310) 559-9156.
