BARRET Agathe
Portfolio CSM 1
In this portfolio you will discover my art world. I have grouped together videos, various photographic projects and also a graphical aspect of my work.
At the moment I am working on my main source of inspiration, my family and the family unit, on both the cultural and attitude level.
Raymond Depardon began by photographing his mother and his pets. His idea of knowing how to begin using what is there and available has inspired me immensely. Moreover the relationship between individuals has always fascinated me and in my work, I closely observe the family heritage and the influence that it can have on our personal sense of being.
In this project I develop historical memory and the danger of disappearance by using, as the main protagonist, the face, thanks to a combination of different mediums. Carmen Calvo has been an important source of inspiration in my work by the way she treats different mediums through his sensitivity for our cultural heritage as well as her work on memory.
I have also developed a different universe in my videos, concentrating on the relationship between man and objects or environments. My inspiration came from Robin Rhodes who works with the earth and his surroundings, his chalk sketches to which he adds a human presence. I made a video in which an individual draws his path with chalk, searching for a way through or maybe searching for his inner self? Is he lost in a common environment or is it a metaphor for the search for personal identity? Another video shows a man who has an extremely close relationship with an everyday object, the car. The object becomes sacred through his emotionally charged gestures towards it.
These projects allow us to reflect on the environment in which we evolve, the increasing importance of objects but also, in opposition, the family heritage.
