Born in 1981, Eva E. Davier currently lives and works in Paris. Self-taught photographer obsessed since teenagehood with road trips, the USA, novels by Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk and James Frey, she also finds great source of inspiration in Lynch's dark and disturbing films, as well as in Vermeer's and Hopper's melancholic paintings, where the chiseled work on light is predominant.
In 1996, she takes her first pictures of Santa Monica's beachfront, freshly arrived from a long trip on the passenger seat of a Buick LeSabre rented by her father a month before in NYC. An real epiphany, which retinal persistence will affect the rest of her life.

Yellow Horse
Taken in 2009 along Route 66, in the middle of a deserted and dusty Arizonian Indian American reservation between two scrapyards, this photograph belongs to a mini series entitled "Crash Test". It appeals to our interior mythologies (mis)shaped by all the road movies and westerns that have penetrated our European collective imagination.
