Mohamad Abdouni describes his work as a way to "preserve the stories that are condemned every day to be erased".

In this respect, his photographic practice could be said to be based on relationships: relationships with the people who trust him with their archives; relationships with these same archives and the people they document. It is also a practice of caring, tenderness and gentleness that supports work with technology and sensitive AI.

For his solo exhibition at the Fondation, Mohamad Abdouni follows this line, this time adopting an introspective approach and diving into his personal and intimate history. Reassessing his relationship with the Bekaa, the region in which he grew up, he questions the voices and bodies that populate his memories and his imagination. He uses figures and media, and combines temporalities, relationships and desires.
