"CONTES D'IMAGES"
The works that form this specific season wish to open a diversified discourse on storytelling in images. The theme holds imaginary potential rooted in the real world to make the most of its incredible capacity - namely to be able to reinvent itself continuously and untiringly.
The image, dissociated from all rational and predefined logic, contains therefore several realities and reveals itself to be reconciling by encouraging towards a work that is individual and subjective. It rules out classification in order to celebrate ambivalent difference. The author initiates the discourse, leaving the observer to take over by association.
Here several worlds converge: documentation meets fiction, memories and emotions complement each other through philosophical thought, the illustration aligns itself with surrealist thought, the tribute to science identifies itself as a poetic quotation and literary reference, each time claiming an autonomous ingenuity. In this context, any suspected subversion develops into a positive force that is constructive rather than deconstructive.
This season, you need more than to contemplate to be able to see, as photography requires a good ear. And is has a lot to tell.
