I leave it to chance
We never really find our place, or at least only for a moment. Because this place does not only depend on us, but on those around us. It is a constant exchange between myself and others, both physically and emotionally.
This work pays homage to all the people who cross our life at a moment, even only a glance, a presence, but who allow to build us.
Our place is always defined in relation to our surroundings, but it belongs only to us.
In chance, everything is blurred, everything is color. These moments of life, taken on silver film, have disappeared by themselves due to time damaging its chemistry. We thought they were engraved forever in the image, but they are not anymore. They end up summarizing the rest of the moments that did not have access to the memory in image.
