Ma maison me regarde et ne me connaît plus - Valérie Sonnier

Valérie Sonnier's works depict an universe defined by the notions of presence and absence, whose nostalgic architectures are punctuated by apparitions. Each project is expressed through three media: film, photography and drawing. Valérie Sonnier is more specifically interested in the architecture of the places she portrays with precision. This setting, a theatre of spirits and lives that she tries to capture and immortalise, is drawn with graphite, coloured pencil and wax on the pages of old school or account books, filmed with a Super 8 camera and photographed in silver or colour, ghostly traces that constantly transpose us into a space of time that is past, as if crystallised.
