ABOUT THE ARTWORK

I was three days in Charleroi to photograph the city: I wanted to make a book about gentrification and degentrification, addressing the contemporary urban crisis and explore links between overspill and void, capital and forgotten knowledge. But when I visited the city, I was so overwhelmed, I decide to devote this project to the city itself. ​ Architecture is shaped by human emotions and desires, but then forms a new setting for other developments. The connection that seems to exist between the living and the lifeless evokes the necessity of photography within me: it is always incomplete, or only complete because of the lives around it. ​Photo on aluminium 40 x 30 cm

I’m intrigued by the difficult relation between the desire for control and balance, and the desire for chaos and irrationality. I find these seemingly contradictory desires strikingly present in everyday life. The relationship between the not-knowing, not comprehending and our continuing desire seems very important to me. This can be expressed in photography: it ensures that you have to use your imagination. Agitation in my head and unanswered questions do not fit in harmonious and controlled environments. Unanswered questions represent a need, and fuel my projects and correspond to desire. My photo series are full of chaos, not-knowing, impressions and questions, lead by an apparent makeability born in the mind, which however cannot be controlled.
