Bruno Fert (1971) - Gilets. Samos Grèce, 2017

Bruno FERT (Born in 1971) Vests. Samos, Greece, 2017 Passages 2017 Fine Art print on Hahnemühle Ultrasmooth paper, title and date inscribed in the margin 32 x 32 cm (40 x 50 cm) PASSAGES In the Mediterranean, off the Libyan coast, a boat burns. It will disappear like thousands of lives devoured by the waves before reaching the lights of a better horizon. The sites I photograph are on the routes used by exiles who dream of Europe. There I search for the scars and traces left in the landscapes: a few pebbles gathered in a forest on the island of Samos bear witness to trajectories of lives brutally interrupted. Elsewhere, there are the remains of life jackets with colors faded by the sun that tell us about a grueling crossing. One imagines silhouettes stepping down from a boat to run to the shelter of foliage, shedding the clues to their clandestine voyage. Boats seized and numbered by border police lie motionless on the shore. Arrived in Italy, some write in charcoal fragments of their story on the walls of a deserted house in the village of Case Gina. Others discard their worn clothes once they have passed the barbed wires at the French border above Menton. As our world grows a grid of barriers and walls, there appear as many breaches through which women and men pass or perish. Bruno Fert — Documentary Photographer Bruno Fert develops a profoundly humanistic body of work devoted to exile, to migrations and to the traversed territories. From vanished Palestinian villages to the precarious shelters of migrants, he photographs less the event than its traces. With Passages, he continues this work on the roads of exile, revealing in the landscapes the marks left by those who try to reach Europe. A precise and silent photography, where the landscape becomes a bearer of memory."}*/>
