Purgatory - A place between dark and light - Paris - 2009

 

I found again this enigmatic picture in my archives. I don't remember exactly where I took it, but it was in Paris for sure, during one of my numerous walks. I use to go randomly through the small paths of the cities I visit. My favourite game: to get lost in an unknown neighbourhood.

Yellow Candle - Enlighten the minds - Stockholm - 2008

 

I was in Stockholm for a couple of weeks in summer 2008. I assisted to the Stockholm Pride Festival which lasts a full week and welcomes lots of concerts, debates and parties. We infiltrated the Pride Parade, in which Swedish associations celebrate their pride. Among the groups of policemen, firemen and Securitas' guards, I noticed the cortege of Amnesty International volunteers and their inevitable yellow placards.
