Embroidery and drawing on a photograph printed on Fine Art Hahnemuele paper.
13 x 20 cm .
The photograph was taken over the skies of Beni Mellal, over the Atlas mountain during free fall ( skydiving) while I took fabric props with me.
My years skydiving have a taste of a freedom and child like innocence marvelling at the wonderful world from above. Those feelings are tested during events like the past years or the earthquake, while togetherness through these times revives them and grounds us back in our humanity. I tap on those feelings by creating these imaginary characters and parallel worlds.
These lyrics come to mind from Indila's "Derniere danse "
" J'remue le ciel, le jour, la nuit
Je danse avec le vent, la pluie
Un peu d'amour, un brin de miel
Et je danse, danse, danse, danse, danse, danse, danse
{....}
Et je m'envole, vole, vole, vole, vole, vole, vole '
