Presentation by D'une rive à l'autre:         [translation L'Ascenseur Végétal]

" The photography series « I would like you to see me » created in 2015 by Arianna Sanesi, about femicide in Italy, at a time when the word was barely used and the phenomenon was essentially ignored by the media, is the starting point of this photobook and of the encounter between Arianna's images and the texts of historians Lydie Bodiou and Frédéric Chauvaud.

Their dialogue provides the necessary light to whomever wishes to understand how words and images can offer new perpectives on one of the most important problem of our times: femicide and domestic violence against women. "

The book is made of two separate signatures bound together through a Z-shape cover; each signature with its own Singer binding. TEXTS IN FRENCH ONLY.

An introduction video to the project, and to the book, by the authors, is available here. IN FRENCH ONLY.

The images presented here were taken from Arianna Sanesi's website.

Sanesi, Arianna

Arianna Sanesi is an Italian photographer based "between Paris, Italy, and the forest". From her artistic statement: « My artistic approach is about looking and the exploration of meaning. I do not stop at the surface of things by deciding to take the time to dig: to dig in the stories, the mystery, or simply in what we consider acquired. I meet the ghosts (mine and others’) and I try to evoke the invisible. I use every possible source for inspiration and expression: I work mainly with the help of hints and traces, in search of what has disappeared, what cannot be seen, what cannot be shown and from there I start to build a story. [...] I try to deal with what is missing and make it visible. » In 2014 she publishes "Dispersal" (Rumore Nero), a book / object, a wild and probably vain quest for the wolf, this mythical and invisible creature. A priject Arianna indicates is « about absence, longing and freedom. » In 2021, she publishes with writers Lydie Bodiou and Frédéric Chauvaud the book "Les crimes passionnels n'existent pas" (d'une rive à l'autre). For this book (in French only) discussing violence against women, she contributes images from her project "I would like you to see me" about femicide in Italy. © Portrait taken from the artist's website
