Non-place

Spaces that are remembered without peculiarities, not territories, void in which people slide weightlessly.

The figures seen from a glass, taken with long exposure times, are shadows in motion and dance under the arcades. How can we call places that are not recognized, people who do not know each other, gestures that are not? "There is certainly more infinity in the shadows than in celestial space". (Abdelmajid Benjelloun)
The lights on are waiting for someone. Perhaps they have all been tired for some time, and yet they are used to it ... Tomorrow will be the same as today. In the end, what we are given to know, to tell, to represent is only a small gap on the surface of things, of the landscapes we inhabit and live. In our lives this sense of uprooting becomes an epochal figure, this having to continually find the common thread, unravel it among thousands of physical and mental junctions and intersections, a continuous finding together to get lost again,
