Self-portrait with child
2014
Aglaé Bory
Photography
“This self-portrait highlights the lasting link that unites these two beings.
The inwardness of the characters resonates with the landscape. It connects
what can be seen with what cannot be, the visible with the invisible, the
moment with timelessness. The eye of both photographer and spectator
are in unison, creating a silent conversation. We are together, united for
the duration of the photo, in the gesture itself and in the artistic emotion.”
Aglaé Bory
France
Born in 1978
After studying art history at the University of Aix-en-Provence and photography at the Ecole nationale de photographie in Arles, Aglaé Bory worked for ten years in Paris where, in addition to her personal work, she worked regulary for the press (Libération, Les Inrockuptibles, Psychology Magazine and others). Her photographic work, somewhere beetween documentary and fiction, concentrates on the human face through portraits and self-portraits. Aglaé Bory tries to see what is not seen, show what is hidden, and to capture what is fleeting. She is a member of the France(s) Territoire Liquide collective.
