Effets secondaires
2000-2001
Works by ex-drug addicts in a foster home (le Gué).
I worked with young people who had decided to break with a physical or psychological addiction, on the idea of an exchange through photography
(meaning I took portrait in exchange for a mise-en-scene).
The negative of the portrait belonged to them. Through the image, they could have a different view of themselves.
The set is made up of small metallic prints (10 x 15cm) on black and white platinum-coated paper, a direct link with small and precious and toxic characteristic of drugs.
