Es entstanden sehr unterschied- liche Fotografien, die zusammen ein facetten- Foto: Maria Siebenhaar reiches Bild von Frankreich zeigen. Die essayis- tischen Einzelaufnahmen in schwarz und weiß offenbaren die Gegensätze dieses Landes: Peripherie und Metropole, abgelegene Dörfer, in denen die Zeit stehen geblieben zu sein scheint, daneben die pulsierende Metropole Paris mit ihrem städtischen Flair. Jedes einzelne Foto erlaubt dem Betrachter, für einen kurzen Moment in eine andere Welt einzutauchen, dokumentiert die Gesichter des All- tags, erzählt kleine Geschichten und das scheinbar Beiläufige. Durch Sujets, Bildsprache und Technik erhalten die Fotografien einen Hauch von Vergangenheit und wirken wie aus längst vergessenen Zeiten. Fotografiert wurde die Serie auf analogem Filmmaterial, das im An- schluss von den beiden Fotografinnen eigenhändig entwickelt wurde.
