In residence in Deauville, Anna Malagrida turns her gaze to a town that has long been shaped by the eyes of photographers and filmmakers. Her locations, imbued with visual memory, seem to be part of a collective imagination, like the silent sets of a film or scenes from a painting.
A conceptual and experimental artist, Anna explores the boundaries between photography and video, between urban space and landscape. She questions fundamental oppositions — interior/exterior, light/darkness, transparency/opacity — to better reveal areas of ambiguity.
In Deauville, she lingers on spaces of passage, interstices, these suspended places that question the links between reality and fiction at the heart of seaside urbanism.
Spanish photographer and videographer born in 1970 in Barcelona, Anna Malagrida lives and works in Paris. Working around the dialectic of the frame, she questions urban and natural space, highlighting the tension between interior and exterior. Her work explores the dialogue between spaces and those who inhabit or pass through them. Represented by the RX Gallery (Paris), her works are part of prestigious collections, such as the Centre Pompidou, the Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona and the Kawasaki City Museum.
