Sponte Sua (of one's own motion) draws us into a universe of faces and bodies, as if suspended, hesitating between several realities. "These portraits quiver with a very particular life. They reflect, indeed, all the ambiguity of the genre: the 'blur' that characterises them reintegrates all the presence of the photographed subject. [...] The unease that emanates from these portraits could correspond to an evasion, a flight of the subject." Nathalie Luyer, Vis à Vis International. Before these off-kilter images, Nathalie Papin proposes an imaginary crossing alongside these impalpable "actors", who have become, under her pen, an astonished procession.
