Femmes d'Argentine Work developped as a web essay and for a publication: Nous sommes le soleil. Essay by Guylaine Massoutre. 32 photos. Éditions Varia, collection Prose de combat, Montréal, 2019.
Body of work produced during a research-creation residency in Argenitna en 2018 and collaborative work with the writer Guylaine Massoutre around the period of dictatorship and the condition of women. Images of archive and memory centers are coupled with portraits of women.
This work is part of a larger set of images groued under the theme of abandonment. They refer to the passage of time, to abandoned places, to women who remember. Colors are important. Pink, ocher, rust for the vestiges of the past, but also blue, celestial blue, color of the flag, of the nation, of the country. Time, memory, power.
