En maillot de bain doré, en vierge implorante ancrée dans la cire d’une bougie ou nue sur un cheval gonflable, Isabella Madrid, photographie colombienne de 25 ans, joue, à Circulation(s) de nombreux rôles – ceux que la société colombienne inculque aux femmes et que les étrangers consomment sans modération. Dans un projet fait de contradictions, le sourire aux dents blanches de l’artiste devient une arme, destinée à déconstruire les archétypes qu’elle érige.

In one image, a man pastes a clear blue sky over a wall once covered in window-like wallpaper. In another, two figures appear as silhouettes behind a bedsheet, gently lit by the soft rays of springtime sun. Nearby, two women stand proudly beside their bicycles, posing in front of a white picket fence — an unmistakable symbol of suburban affluence in America.

It was born from a state of being: I was there, I was sick, and I was a photographer – so, I took photos,” says Frida Lisa Carstensen Jersø. At 14, the Danish artist fell over 4 meters when the railing of a bridge she was leaning on gave way. Her fall onto the asphalt broke her back and injured her spinal cord, leaving her paraplegic.

Feb 11, 2025 | blind-magazine.com | Lou Tsatsas

Drawing on archives, the project fuses portraiture and landscapes, blending “big” and “little” histories. It reveals the search for refuge in the joy of family celebrations, a past stitched together with red thread, and a spectral face barely visible behind smoke, transformed into a ghostly apparition. This 15th issue of The Eyes magazine takes an intimate, multifaceted approach to exile, unpacked by guest curator, Franco-Lebanese writer Sabyl Ghoussoub.

From the very first page, the scene is set: colored by a red plastic film, the torso is bare, the mustache groomed, the body posed, lascivious. A police cap firmly on his head, the man’s eyes remain in the shadows, unfathomable. Zoomed in to the point of abstraction, the portraits in Shadow Cast become pixelated to evoke “the unknown and the danger that emerges from it,” says Pacifico Silano.
