Still Looking for Tenderness
Since 2019, Planches Contact Festival has been constantly expanding the scope of photographers' artistic expression. Initially focused on the town of Deauville, their productions have gradually spread throughout the Normandy region. This year, for the first time, they are crossing this border.
As part of the festival, the photographer Myriam Boulos is leading a creative residency based on this year's chosen theme: intimacy. Produced outside the walls, from Beirut, this production is a continuation of her work focusing on Lebanese youth, which she has been documenting for several years through a sensitive exploration of intimate life in a territory marked by omnipresent war.
The exhibition unveils these previously unseen images, accompanied by a selection of photographs from his monographic book. What’s Ours, in resonance with the theme of intimacy.
Photographe libanaise née en 1992 à Beyrouth, Myriam Boulos y vit et travaille. Dès l’âge de 16 ans, elle s’est mise à utiliser son appareil photo comme un moyen de se rapprocher de la réalité. Elle participe à des expositions collectives internationales à ICP (New York), Huis Marseille (Amsterdam), et Cortona on the Move (Cortona). À travers son travail, elle explore la féminité et la révolte, défiant les normes sociales et politiques, cherchant à se réinventer dans une société patriarcale et capitaliste. Lauréate de plusieurs prix, dont le Grand Prix ISEM et le PHmuseum Women Photographers Grant, elle rejoint l’agence Magnum en 2021.
