Les Traces Énigmatiques des Autres
Fiona Segadães Da Silva
In " les traces énigmatiques des autres" a semi-contemplative approach is taken to maintain our conflicting relationship with the gradual destruction of the living world. This ongoing project, like a bad omen, emphasize our helplessness and uncertainty when it comes to the living world that we have dissociated from, it also documents the imperceptible links that nourish our coexistences, while focusing on micro-events and transitory forms.
" les traces énigmatiques des autres" presents an approach to reality in a vision of interdependence, focusing on the photographic medium as possibility of collecting imperceptible details. This series is constructed from decontextualized observations and captures, transporting us into an atmosphere that is both tense and mysterious, using the principle that everything is ephemere. Living relies on sensitive cycles that it is possible to disrupt, as they still escape any form of strict control. An underlying tension arises feel, while silent phenomena form a flickering atmosphere. Could the photographic act channel the emotional tension of a living and vulnerable body?
