the work of remembrance is one of the few faculties unique to the human species
we are born, we live and we die on earth,
like anything else.
so ? what do we leave behind for the remembrance to live on ?

do we remember our great-great grandparents ?
no one talk about them anymore, they fade away like frivolus memories.

where does lost film go if we forget them ?
what stories does this photographic heritage tell us ?

photography represents only the vestiges of a passage
about desirous humans who wanted to stop the clock.
memory fades away like photographs without archiving.

this series is a hybrid approach between my mixed-media photography and remembrance work.

and i was in the need of cutting this series in two :
from my family archives,
and from world archives (public domain),
or archives that i found and keep to rework them
to bring forgotten life fragments back to our world through my eyes, through my work

i'm not going to upgrade this part of the website
it takes me so much time to code my website / portfolio with HTML
this archival project will be tranferred on another website
create especially for this series
i will use a website generator to make it

here are the two separate parts
