Do You Get Cm Before Your Period?
«11 heures dans l'Aude, France et 11 heures à Turku, Finlande."
Eleven o'clock in the Aude - France and eleven o'clock in Turku - Finland, why this title? because first of all photography is one between two, a combination of two mobilities, present and past, the union of a diaphragm and speed, dual, ie a game between even both. "The thought invites us to the division of the ego, the specularization our thinking as another subject, the double vision of reality" 1. The number eleven seemed to be the figure at closer to the deeper meaning of photography, a picture is never be subjected to only a single snapshot, it refers to a story, at a time, at a time. This is the principle of photography, being and becoming, if I testify in the moment of an event in the future the same time will be analyzed as a past event, there will again echo with a proofreading of a repetition. It's this back and forth, this roundtrip intrigued me, between "a" starting point in this and other "one" as a return, so this time difference between the two but, on the eleventh as a photographic diaphragm, this small opening that paradoxically allows great depth of field. My research around the number eleven also led me to the palindromes, ancient Greek, palindromos "which runs in reverse," that is to say a word or a text with the order of symbols (letters, numbers, etc.) remains the same it is read from left to right or right to left 2, Finnish is a language conducive to long palindromes and I have the chance to exhibit in Finland on 11.02.2011 which is a palindromic date. The palindrome is like a reflecting mirror and of course, I immediately saw its metaphorical relationship with photography.
