- Images, will you love one another?
Tenderly. Solemnly. Together.
End of a road trip toward a nowhere that is also somewhere. I practice photography from a void — the one left by the men I have loved.
This 50-image series bears witness to an ongoing intimate transmutation: the void, experienced not only as absence, but as a tragic chance. An opening — a space for drift, air for the imagination.
There were once those men with whom I felt a blazing sense of contact, despite the vertiginous gap between us. There are now images brushing against one another — resonant, distant, near, foreign, familiar, dissonant.
Built in the tension between loss and memory, this constellation could have been titled HOMO / SEXUAL.
HOMO, from the Ancient Greek homós: similar, same, identical
SEXUAL, from the Latin sexus, from secare: to cut, to separate
You, me, them, elsewhere, here…
What binds us, truly?
