AUTHOR: cédric zuwala (France)

I am a photographer artist based in France.
I have personally studied photography, philosophy and art.
My artistic research focuses on time and memory ... the time of memory and the memory of time.
I try to probe the residual spaces between mental geographies and physical realities.
A look at the unstable erosion between emotion and reason.
Existential questioning becomes the center of all my work and all my thoughts.
I pay particular attention to the relationship between the individual and the collective unconscious
as a hesitant encounter between the world of images and the images of the world.
