Raquel Nave for Libération Next: How to renew the shock of the new
by Maud & Pénélope . posted on May 05, 2009If you are lucky to be different, it’s all OK. If you don’t feel different at all, don’t even try. Never. Raquel Nave has never tried to be or to look different, she simply realized one day that she had to do what she really wanted to. A little lightning in your mind, a train ticket and a big goodbye to your old world. That’s the way it changes, that’s the way it changed, for her. From San Francisco to New York, from New York to Paris. From Paris to infinity. The depth of her work is absolutely incredible, almost unbelievable. It’s all about vibes, vibrations. About being geniune and giving hundred percent of herself in front of the camera.
Cameras, she has already met a lot of them in her career. She has worked with people like Terry Richardson, she did covers, she did editorials (including a recent Vogue Russia by Jem Mitchell) like one would explore an unknown planet. She goes beyond and does it effortlessly. She’s precious. So precious today when many people would kill to have a bit of charisma or a touch of attitude. Let them pretend to be what they are not. Raquel is in the newest issue of Libération Next, shot by Jean-Baptiste Mondino. Every single piece of her book is delightful. If you haven’t met her yet, meet the girl who knows how to renew the shock of the new.
