TITLE: Electric Lady Land - Her ghost through my veins
This series explores the relation between visibility (as an aesthetic
result), memory, movement, light and shapes through different positions of a woman’s body. I made these compositions with an “electrical feel” to them ; where the light could be seen as “electrons and waves” interacting with the model.
On the other hand, those “waves” are a visual allegory to my veins where memories of a past lover run. There is a line that divides each picture into a diptych. This line marks a separation since the lady in those photos and i, are no longer together. Therefore her memory haunts me with an alternation of “positive and negative charges” represented through the shifting moving contrasts between the blacks and whites within these photos.
AUTHOR: Sadek Lee-Marie (France)
I was born in Beirut - Lebanon in 1977. I wanted to be a graphic designer in the purpose to design CD booklets and posters. In 1995 i went to Brussels for two years to study Typography and Graphic Design at La Cambre (school of visual arts in Brussels). After it, i returned to my country and had my degree in Mass Media - Publicity at the Lebanese University. In 2001 i moved to France where i live now, and had my master degree in Communication-Publicity. Then i dropped all my publicity studies out of interest, but the passion to produce an image was still a need inside me, so i turned naturally into photography. In 2012 i had my degree in Fine Arts - Photography at the University of Paris 8.
