Pictures for nothing - a series of images taken in Finland and France between 2011 and 2012
Even today, photography is often expected to bear witness to the world. That it refers to what we quickly call reality, the truth, the facts, that it defines something, that it helps us to circumscribe the world, like a prosthesis for discourse.
Here, images aspire to something else, to express-expire in a different way, in that in-between place of the real that is the imaginary, affect, projection. Benjamin's words, 'the optical unconscious' haunt this discussion, trying to achieve a verbal (and I hope not wordy) presentation of images - that other of discourse.
It's a question of allowing doubt and ambiguity to linger, the virtue of Asia, the dread of rationalists.
It's about letting our eyes and sensibilities intermingle so that a story, or stories, can emerge here for each and every one of us. Helsinki, April 2012.
