Summary

Work in progress about Algerian culture in France, supported by the national comission for photography of the BnF and Culture ministry

I have never felt so fragile in front of a project.
Overwhelmed both by the dream and the viceral need to do it and by the fear of making a mistake. Also because of the pressure and the responsibility of doing it in the context of a commission by the BNF and Ministère de la Culture

I finally believe that it is by accepting this uncertain space that I will be able to tell the stories of my project "Algeria(s), a mosaic of heirs in France" as sincerely as possible.

And somehow, the results of the elections, the debates of these last weeks and the music of Rachid Taha in a mestizo amphitheater in transa, reaffirmed to me that something must be done, hoping that this will be my grain of sand.
