Les aventures de Chloe
2019

In the same notion as in Memoires d'un fou, the intention in these ones was the creation of a visual memoir,like a diary that unfolds into several stories.
A collage, fragments of imaginative moments that have a sort of unspoken connection with the book. I create freely; by letting my subconscious combine scraps of imagery that will best tell the stories living inside my head. The mosaic that I create comes from an everyday imagery, from retro scenes of the 20s and 50s to colonized tribes in South America, from fairytales to circus life.  This potpourri creates a new world, where all these elements co-exist. Thus a new landscape is ultimately created.  Although the connection with the book might not be obvious, it lies in the reciprocal desire to express a strong feeling about our existence. 
Using personal archive photographs as the base for the creation of each scenery, I wanted to intensify the feeling of memories, combining it with symbols that refer to childhood and innocent (or not) times.
