Portrait: Honorable Mention 2014 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
The nakedness of my models gives me access to a different truth. In the series "l'Autre" (the Other) it's a look that's given back to me, that I'm trying to grasp intuitively to hold on to. A piece of work on the memory allowing us to resist oblivion and death.
This photo is a self portrait on which I pose with my grand mother who is more than one hundred years old.
