Stéphanie Barbetta part à la rencontre des personnes qui quittent leur logement en photographiant et en accompagnant leur dernier passage dans leur maison.
S’appuyant sur des recherches en philosophie, en physique et en sociologie, le projet EMPTY HOME sonde la relation au foyer et le foisonnement énergétique du vide.
Artiste pluridisciplinaire italo-suisse, Stéphanie Barbetta fonde le projet Substance brute en 2020, après un master en littérature et en philosophie suivi par des études supérieures de théâtre. Ses recherches artistiques se penchent sur la question du traum-a (néologisme de l’allemand Traum – rêve – et de l’anglais trauma).
Moving house means leaving behind a private territory, a refuge that shelters our intimacy. Once the boxes and furniture have been moved, what happens when you take the time to look back one last time on this seemingly empty home ? When you no longer live there, but you’re not yet in your new home, do you literally lose your footing ?
Stéphanie Barbetta sets out to meet people who are leaving their homes by photographing and accompanying their last stay in their house.
Drawing on research in philosophy, physics and sociology, the EMPTY HOME project explores the relationship between home and the energetic abundance of emptiness.
