Terres communes, 2010-2012
Since the 1990s, associations supporting street people until death have multiplied throughout France. In Paris, it is the "Collective of the Dead of the Street", in Marseille, "Marseillais solidaires des morts anonymes". A singular solidarity movement, between life and death, the city and its margins. Conceived in Marseille and Paris, "Common Lands" is a multimedia reflection and memory object created by Emmanuel Vigier. This web documentary brings together videos, sounds, writings, and photographs and bears witness to the action of volunteers from collectives, as well as street life through auditory and visual traces captured in Marseille and Paris. I extracted from the web documentary this series of street photographs symbolizing both the occupation of urban space and disappearance.
