"REGARDS SANS LIMITES – BLICKE OHNE GRENZEN #02" follows on from a call for projects issued at the end of 2012 aimed at photographers aged between 25 and 40 living and working in the Greater Region (Lorraine, Luxembourg, Rhineland-Palatinate, Saarland and Wallonia). The goal of this undertaking is to support and encourage artists so they can bring their creative projects to fruition while also availing of a suitable platform for the promotion and distribution of their work. In addition to the creative support grant that award recipients receive, a collective itinerant exhibition and a catalogue are presented throughout the Greater region. The partner associations hosting this exhibition are – for Lorraine (FR), the CCAM - Scène nationale de Vandoeuvre-lès-Nancy – for Luxembourg (LU), the CNA - Centre national de l’audiovisuel, Dudelange – and for Saarland (GE) the Saarländisches Künstlerhaus, Saarbrücken.CNA Centre national de l'audiovisuel 1b, rue du Centenaire 3475 Dudelange Luxembourg
Sylvie Guillaume, Restes à venir, 2013
In the "Restes à venir" (Remains to come) series, Sylvie Guillaume rekindles memories of childhood. She returns to familiar places, treads once more the paths of her childhood to compare her memories with the reality of today. "What remains of the reality of my memories?" asks the artist, as she undertakes this experiment that looks back over twenty years. An autobiography of sorts, with a dual chronology comprising memory and the present. People, places, yesterday and today, intertwine to become a new story, a retrospective fiction. Furthermore, the form of presentation chosen by Sylvie Guillaume for her series underlines the fragmented nature of memory.
The series "Proies" (prey) by Delphine Gatinois is somewhat disquieting. Animism, voodoo and belief in spirits seem to meld in her images. For this work, the artist travelled to Africa, to Mali and Burkina Faso. But rather than travel photos or simple documentation, her images take the form of "mises en scène". Instead of representing the reality of people living there, the artist has let her self be guided by her impressions, which she then reworked in her oeuvre. Inspired by African myths, traditions, symbols and rites, she has produced images that are original, defiant and personal. They are inhabited by creatures that hover between reality and fiction yet whose appearance reminds us of something quite concrete. Fabulous beings, gods, spirits, a world – a dream?
