Soldiers’ Stories from Iraq and Afghanistan : the Artist’s Process
Jennifer Karady
Bande-annonce
Dans le cadre de sa série Soldiers’ Stories from Iraq and Afghanistan, Jennifer Karady travaille avec des vétéran·e·s de l’armée américaine pour réaliser des photographies reconstituant un moment en zone de guerre qui les a marqué·e·s, tout en révélant leurs difficultés à s’adapter au retour à la vie civile. Chacune des photographies de la série s’ancre dans une expérience personnelle dont l’artiste est un témoin privilégié. Ayant vécu un événement traumatisant durant son service en Irak, la vétérane Lucero Morales souffre désormais d’anxiété lorsqu’elle entend le bruit d’explosion que produit l’ouverture d’une boîte de pâte à biscuits. Tel est le point de départ de la composition et de la mise en scène d’une image qui l’aidera à amorcer sa guérison. Le film présente les étapes du processus collaboratif au cours duquel Karady s’investit totalement et tisse des liens étroits avec la vétérane mère de famille.
