No man’s land

No man’s land 2006-2008
Dimensions variable. Photographies Argentiques
Je propose une série de photographies qui nous confronte à la réalité de ces hommes et de ces femmes de l’ombre condamnés à la clandestinité. Sorte de photographies d’identité paradoxales, ces images donnent forme à une identité cachée et bafouée.La photographie devient la mémoire du monde par l’objet du regard, mémoire de soi par le sujet du regard et mémoire du temps par l’acte du regard.

Afghans, Kurds, Irakis, Sudanese … flee poverty, war, persecutions in their own country. Photographs of these men and women doomed to live as clandestines, are aimed at sharing their condition. One can feel these people’s reality.Through a glance, photography becomes the world’s memory, the memory of human being, the memory of time.

These isolated and unnamed characters are confronted with city architecture. I aim at showing them as actors of our time, as well as reflections of our society. Spectators are free to feel the frontier between reality and imagination.
This work is both a video and a photograph. Each detail refers to people’s life. These works are a mix of random encounters and complex storytelling, between snapshot and production.
