In the contemporary era, our immediate and public use of images has contributed to the dilution of intimacy. ‘The intimacy we no longer have’ is a photographic, editorial and screen-printing project that explores how analogue processes can reconcile us with the intimacy we have lost through the massification of digital images.
The project questions the use and meaning of contemporary portraiture through a visual dialogue between the Instagram portrait, the photographer's portrait and the self-portrait. The analogue camera acts as an agent to regenerate relationships between photographer and subject.
The rules of the game are as follows: I take photographs of the subject's Instagram profile. Subsequently, we find ourselves in a space where the photographic subject sits in comfort. I take a portrait of the person from my perspective as a photographer and then pass the camera to the subject to take three self-portraits, without physically stepping out of the image.
At the same time, it is a textile garment that was born as a solution to create intimate spaces and a photobook that claims a rereading of the rhythm of the images.
