The images of natural and manufactured objects, observed and taken out of context, as well as those of contemplative landscapes and mysterious portraits, intended to convey the passing of time and a sense of ennui. A dialogue is established between moments and places that aren't otherwise connected with each other, thus opening interpretation to new meanings.
In this introspective and intimate quest to build a personal memory, everyday-life, still life, landscape, and travel photographs relate with the vestiges of past generations, with traces already been left.
The genesis of this photographic series coincides with certain personal events, such as moving to the South of France, leaving my life in Paris abruptly, and coping with a decision that wasn't entirely mine. However, while real-life takes its own course there is a place where creation is free to explore what is happening without self-judgment, and, therefore, taking pictures in these new surroundings has become a way to express part of my subconscious.
