Boubacar Boris Diop / Nando Dalla Chiesa Lentement / Slow
Photographs by Sophie Bachelier.
Three authors meet here for the first time. Their culture and origins are different. Each evokes mothers of children far away or lost. Each portrays the violence their absence causes, so hard and painful that it becomes a presence. Images slowly unraveled by Sophie Bachelier and texts penned by Boubacar Boris Diop and Nando Dalla Chiesa alternate in this book.
