Un-Possible Retour
Attracted by the photograph’s ability to cross the time, I looked at my family albums and re-examined familiar scenes.
I pore over my snapshots intrigued by the way I presented myself to the camera, how my parents saw our family and how those choices influenced my memory.
Restaging a specific instant can take weeks of planning and several hours of shooting while the original moment happened spontaneously and without control.
A memory is never static, it changes as we grow, time become a creative space of evolution.
In the conparaison I unavoidably failed, we have to fail. There is no return into time.
