The Specifics (2025 - ongoing)

An ongoing collaboration with Laurène Messeca, a young Parisian woman who will soon be clinically blind.

The project brings into dialogue images from two distinct yet interconnected sources: On one hand, a selection from over 14,000 of Laurène’s personal phone photos, and on the other, photographs - taken at her direction - of the places, faces and details of her neighbourhood, that she will soon be unable to see.

“Through attention to (the) specifics, photography can reveal a wider coherence in life, helping to reconcile us with the world.”

- Robert Adams (1981)
