Corps en transit

2021

Corps en transit began from encounters with a group of Sudanese people living near the port of Ouistreham, where many attempted to reach England by boarding trucks bound for the ferry. The project brings together a series of watercolours in which bodies appear through repeated, transparent layers, as if caught between movement, waiting and disappearance.

Working from press images and from the gestures I observed around the port, I traced the silhouettes again and again until the figure became less individual than suspended: a body in passage, exposed to uncertainty, yet still carrying its own force of movement.
