2009 LAF project, Liberec, Czech Republic

This series is my contribution to the L.A.F. Project. I portrayed all the members of a single family and I asked them what they remembered about their experience of communism. Answers varied a lot regarding of the age and sex of the person.

Cette série est ma contribution au projet L.A.F. J'ai réalisé le portrait d'hommes et de femmes d'une même famille et je leur ai demandé quel souvenir ils avaient de leur expérience du communisme. J'ai obtenu un large spectre de réponses variant en fonction du sexe et de l'âge de la personne.
