This series 'Fade' is a real personal and introspective project. About the difficulties of finding one's place in the world, in these times. About solitude, fears and doubts.
I consider this series as a set of photograms (the shortest unit of time in a film). This puzzle of still images tells a story. I want to encourage people's interpretation and imagination, according to their personality and emotions.
For me, photo is a mirror or a window, often both.
So, it all started in 2020, during the pandemic. I thought a lot and I took stock of my life. I felt a psychological chaos. Then I decided to change my career. I need a new challenge before I get too old (I turn 50 in 2022).
For 13 years I have worked in the service of people. As a radio journalist, I have run many radio workshops with teenagers, persons with disabilities and elderly or isolated people. A gratifying and useful job but I felt the need to express myself.
I was lost and I felt cramped, A decision needed to be made.
Then, I am in the process of becoming a professional artist photographer. To feel free, alive, again.
