A small desacralized church. An improvised exhibition in the Parisian suburbs. Backlight cutting through the space.
And her, Sophie.
In the middle of that space, without emphasis, a presence holding everything together. Not through what it showed, but through what it allowed one to sense.
My sculpture does not seek to tell a story, but to restore that suspended moment in which light, space, and presence coincide.
Thus Sophie became a silent figure, born from a counter-shot, from what is seen only for an instant and yet continues to return.
