And the day that Oh les beaux jours was completely finished and ready to be seen in The Netherlands has arrived. From March 26th to March 31st, my beloved series will be on display at Galerie Waterbolk, Utrecht. I started this project in summer 2020 when I locked myself up with my camera, in France, in the house of my late grandparents. Then I came back three times, looking for souvenirs and cherished memories. My grand-mother stayed in this house until her last breath in 2009. Since her death nothing has changed, everything is precisely at the same place than fifteen years ago as if touching all these objects and emptying the house meant accepting that we had to continue living without this spine that kept us upright. Last summer, I came back to France and photographed the wild landscape of le Causse, Aveyron. From this journey inside and outside came Oh les beaux jours, an ode to life and beauty that is a poetic souvenir despite death, silence and loneliness.
I will be present at the gallery every day to welcome you. Hope to see you there.
