Isolation
Insularity is often associated with the idea of paradise. Yet living on an island also means navigating remoteness, limited resources, a strong cultural identity, and constant exposure to the influences of the outside world. Through photographs made across the islands of French Polynesia, this series explores these tensions: between tradition and modernity, geographical isolation and the circulation of images and cultures, spectacular landscapes and the ordinary realities of everyday life. Ultimately, the project reflects on what it means to inhabit an island in today's world.
