Aassmaa Akhannouch drew inspiration from her childhood home in Morocco to create this series that explores her memories. The photographer brings the spirit of the place back to life by reenacting scenes, like suspended moments, in this house where the old, broken television, the telephone that will never ring again, the dress long forgotten in the wardrobe remain...
Then comes the time of printing, a long process that mixes techniques and materials. In her laboratory, the photographer goes from the negative to the cyanotype, which will be toned and enhanced with watercolors to highlight some details of the image.
Aassmaa Akhannouch thus reveals the passing of time and sketches the vision of a timeless Morocco imbued with universal childhood memories.
