Work done in acrylic. The action of showing, of hiding in order to symbolize a place of life which today belongs to memory. This painting is part of a series made from archives and plans of apartments. For this series "Plans" I hide with light tones. As under a cottony veil, more or less opaque, more or less perforated. The memory exists but it is eaten away by the limbo of oblivion. “Forgetting is nothing more than a palimpsest. That an accident occurs, and all the erasures come back to life in the spaces of astonished memory ”Victor Hugo,“ Homme qui rit ”, t.2, 1869, p.163.

I work in series, and for each I make graphic choices and adopt an adapted writing. After working on an Identity series, since 2015, I also work on the archive, memory, disappearance. I use the documents left by my grandparents and my parents. So my work, like my identity as granddaughter and daughter, brings to life the traces of their passages. It also brings me back to my own finitude. There is a moment, that of the loss of his two parents, when it is feared that the days after will pass too quickly. Christian Boltanski said in an interview with Etienne Hatt « La mort des parents est une grande coupure dans la vie, car la mort devient plus proche ………Au bout de trois générations on a totalement disparu ». (Les grands entretiens d’artpress Christian Boltanski, Imec Editeur 2014, pages 60 et 61 )
