- Summary:
- As an assembly of archival images and new images, the author realizes with Gravity a photographic poem, a tribute to the first space missions, a narrative fiction inspired by real events. However, Michel Mazzoni's photography is not motivated by nostalgia. Gravity primarily addresses our relationship with images and their virtually infinite potential. While there are representations of deserts, vertiginous heights, perfect spheres, and a certain precision, these motifs condense and obscure the nooks and crannies of the imagination, and act as metaphors for a quest that goes well beyond the laws of calculation and engineering.
