Sang Blanc [White Blood] is a selection of pictures from old pornographic magazines from the 70s-80s. I take pictures, reframing, cutting, scanning. On a page of the original magazine, I’m interested in small details. For example, the face of an actor is in most of the time, not put forward and very small unlike the bodies. My goal is not to access this project on pornography. On the contrary, in my pictures, we see that very rarely a sexual part. Everything is suggested and ambiguous. I play with the picture, but also the flaws of the book, the folded pages, the damaged binding and also the text. Indeed, we can see fragments of text without revealing too quickly. Similarly for the scanner that offers me accidents, frame, blur and shine. My picture work in a duality specific to publishing, but can also live alone.
