Sans objet is a series open to infinity, representative of an everyday photographic gesture. For Chloé Wasp, it's a collection of sudden appearances and details. Without any chronology, it is populated by people and species that merge together in fragments. The human, the vegetable and the animal mingle. In this assemblage of portraits, always very close but never frontal, we can make out her obsession with the gaze, always elusive or missing. From this obsession emerges a form of superstition, giving meaning to bodies and absences. The portraits oscillate and vibrate, blurring the boundaries between sight and vision.

Chloé Wasp is a French photographer and filmmaker based in Lille (northern France). Her work focuses mainly on unconscious phenomena, disturbed vision and the relationships between humans, animals and plants. Through her silver-based photography, she is interested in the porous boundaries between reality and the imaginary. She also investigates the ways in which we relive myths, and how these run through us. The body is always central to these explorations.
