Camera Intima
Camera Intima
Camera Intima is a series about women and how they feel with their body. The picture is taken after a long conversation with the photographer. The process is a pinhole camera in a photo studio. They have to pose for 5 minutes. The way the picture is taken and which picture enters the projet is a shared work with the artist. The consent is needed all way long to the process. It's a multiple portrait of women, sharing their experiences.
Some extracts of the conversations :
- I know my body by heart
- I like when my body does what my head wants
- I have a dissociative relationship with my body. It escapes me. I can't stay in my "house" for very long.
- I am excluded from the carnal experience, I do not feel embodied
- I love and hate my body completely, it is paradoxical
- I think I'm starting to realize that my body is normal
- I consider my body as a machine that needs to be maintained, shined, fed, boosted
- The only time I felt beautiful was when I was pregnant, I was not alone
