2021, Gestes quotidiens (Daily gestures)
15 years ago my father became totally paralysed, due to an accident.
The loss of his motor skills, especially for his hands, deeply impacted me and questioned everything that would normally be taken for granted.
Basic gestures became inaccessible for him without assistance.
As to conjure my obsession of his loss, I asked my mother to carry out these daily gestures.
