About the project
Partners
We aimed at trying to build up portraits which beyond images of individuals who left their country and research work, could express the complex significance of exile and adaptation to a new existence and new challenges. Therefore following dialogue with each person in exile we jointly elaborated and set up the creative process to build up different levels of images, the portrait itself, which may be blurred in some cases for safety reasons, the reflect of their past life and a symbolic representation of their new life in France. This addition of three layers by transparency is not a photo montage and interestingly exceeded the expectations of the model and photographer. The creative process was repeated during the shooting until the realisation of the best imperfect picture, approaching "an eternal temporary result".
Milestones
Restrica is a scientific and artistic project carried out by Pierre-Jérôme Adjedj (photographer, Berlin) and Pascale Laborier, (professor of Political Science, Paris-Nanterre University).
