Vous écrire, 45 Digital Photographs, mounted on Dibond, Paris, France, 2006.
Exist in two Format: 45x60cm and 30x40cm.
Vous écrire is a 45 image series overlaid with text (French). For a period of two months, Fattouh sent to the same person, without prior notification, an image with text in the shape of a postcard, through the mail. The artist set only one rule: write a text, a sentence or a word and associate it with a daily photograph and a date. Not linked to a timeline, each text creates an intrigue, where the limit between reality and fiction is abolished allowing the spectator to construct his or her own story. The photographs are not necessarily coherent with the texts, rather the artist attempts to share an emotion through a personal glance of her body and the space around her.
The photographs were also published in a book by Amers Edition in Lebanon. All texts are translated to Arabic and English.
