«  In the topic of passport photos, the human face is transformed into an emblem of emotionless existence within a standardized frame. The requirement for a neutral expression demands the suppression of any hint of individuality or feeling, rendering the passport photo canvas an uncanny landscape where personal expression is supposed to be muted. The face becomes a symbol of bureaucratic conformity, stripped of its nuances and complexities. »

PASSPORT PHOTO

Interpretation of images by materialising dreamlike elements through the use of leather, technical textiles, sailcloth and waterproof fabric. These materials are assembled and brought to life using various embroidery techniques such as bouti, fil couché and quilting, to create landscapes that are both tangible and unreal.
