The Twin Brothers

This is a scene from a film I have always dreamed of making. Imagining the meeting of one of greatest poets, Charles Baudelaire, with one of the 19th century’s greatest engravers, Charles Meryon.

I know this meeting took place somewhere in Paris, in a café near Saint-Lazare around 1860. I even went to see if the place still existed, but everything had vanished.

Only a few written traces remained to reconstruct this encounter — and the power of imagination.

Much like Peter Watkins' film La Commune de Paris, which through its innovative narrative device was able to revisit a forgotten chapter of history within our present, the latent space offers a formidable tool for the actualization of memories.

It is an as yet unknown continent that must be explored, in order to trace its contours and, perhaps at last, complete the stories that History and time had engulfed.

Fragments of the Latent Space Series

This project offers a visual exploration of latent space through point clouds extracted from imaginary scenes.

By navigating this space, I capture fragments, figures, moments that seem to come from a forgotten film, a collective memory, or an unwritten story.

The aim is not to reconstruct reality, nor to produce finished images, but to record what surfaces: partial, unstable forms, like so many sketches of possible worlds.

These portraits, scenes, or silhouettes never existed, but carry familiar clues within them.

They inhabit this blurred zone between memory, fiction, and desire.
