‘SURFACES et PROFONDEURS’: An exhibition of photographs and poems by Pascal Bernard & Anupama Raju from 14- 23 May, 2015 at Orthic Creative Centre, Kochi.
The exhibition will be inaugurated at 6.30pm, 14 May @ Orthic Creative Centre, Kochi.
The inauguration will be followed by reading of poetry by Anupama Raju.
An Indo-French project, ‘Surfaces et Profondeurs’ explores La Rochelle through the poetry of Anupama Raju, a writer based in Thiruvananthapuram and the photography of Pascal Bernard, a photographer from La Rochelle, France. This collaboration is supported by the Centre Intermondes, La Rochelle and Alliance Francaise de Trivandrum.
Though the project is an exploration of depths of the city, La Rochelle, through its people, its traditions, heritage and culture, these surfacesand depths can be representative of any city.
Pascal and Anupama had earlier collaborated on a project called, ‘Une Ville, Un Lieu, Une Personne’, a photo-poetic exploration of Pondicherry and its people. This exhibition had toured France and the Alliance Francaise network in India in 2012.
The poems of ‘Surfaces and Depths’ were written during a writing residency that Anupama Raju had spent at the Centre Intermondes in La Rochelle in 2012. The poems are accompanied by the photographs of Pascal Bernard residing in La Rochelle.
