BOOK SIGNING MEETING with Marie Mons

A smile from Case-Pilote
Marie Mons
Saturday November 18 from 4 p.m.

We are happy to organize a meeting / signing this Saturday, November 18 with Marie Mons around her book "Une sourire Case-Pilote".

Like a return to the source of identity, Un sourire de Case-Pilote takes root in Martinique, the native island of Marie Mons' grandfather, a character with a complex personal and family history that the author has only rarely met. This quest occurs at a time when she experiences motherhood. Starting from an individual story, that of her family, she encountered Creole culture. Her identity was marked by the traumatic foundations of colonial society, but also united by the crossbreeding, claimed in the Antilles as a cultural identity. Between visual research and questioning of the intimate, Marie Mons offers a free and constructed photography.

Like a return to the source of identity, Un smile de Case-Pilote is rooted in Martinique, the native island of Marie Mons' grandfather, a character with a complex personal and family history whom the author has rarely met. This quest comes at a time when she is experiencing motherhood. Starting from an individual story, that of her family, she encountered Creole culture. Her identity has been marked by the traumatic foundations of colonial society, but also reunited by métissage, claimed in the West Indies as a cultural identity. Between artistic research and intimate questioning, Marie Mons offers a free and constructed photography.
