“Either way” is a collection of memories from Paris, and a peek into a box containing hundreds of pictures shot on film, between 2006 and 2013.
The time and distance between me and the moment these pictures were taken allowed me to work as someone external, selecting and curating pictures taken by a younger version of myself. I didn’t take a single “new” picture for this book, and I didn’t know any of these pictures would end up in a book.
If we know each other and if we lived there at the same time, you can take it as a photo album I put together for you, and remember a few memories you may or may not have forgotten. If we don’t, it won’t give you a perfectly accurate picture of what it was like to live in Paris in the mid 2000s, but you might get some visual clues, should you choose to approach this book as a documentary.
