Célia Muller La Neige in August, chapter 2 excerpt from the text by Marie Cantos Text that you can find in its entirety on our site: Laconserverieunlieudarchives.fr "Tomorrow is another day, series. Of course, fire is not just disaster, incineration. It’s the home, being together. It’s a story where we meet up. But anyone who has had to make fire knows it: we must watch over him. Because a fire that goes out can set up a deadly cold, and it needs to be fed, like a child. Because a fire, even extinguished, can start again. It only takes a crack, an ember that escapes. That it is better to roll the carpet, sleep near the hearth, on the sofa, not to move too far away. One watches over a fire for the same reasons as one watches and lives and dies. A fire — gestures. From the interview. How we maintain plants, relationships, memories. Hands. Hands everywhere in art history books, in painting, in photography. Hands, hands that take care. Hands that gather, that offer. The photographer. Those hands that grip an absent object — unless it’s not the object that was absent. The hollow device, the great absent from the drawings, yet omnipresent. Hands to transmit. What remains, to those who remain.
