Fovea is a series of portraits on black & white hand-processed 35mm photos and SX-70 Polaroids of teenagers and young adults from Quebec (Canada) who have different types of visual impairment. In opposition to actual clichés about this handicap, I chose to work with people from teenagehood to their thirties in order to question their own future self. After several meetings with each of the participants to strengthen their confidence with me, I invite them to be photographed in a poetic mise-en-scène and ask them to choose a place where they feel good and symbolic objects that represent them in order to highlight their passions and professional projects. During the shooting, I detailed to them precisely what I intend to photograph and how I want to portrait them, as a creative dialogue.This project was shortlisted for the IWPA (International Women Photographers Award).
