018Keeping the moment.

Before the Atlas passes and the silence of the dunes, there was an evening in Paris, at Titi Palacio.

A voice telling the story of the project, faces turned towards it, conversations lingering beneath the strings of lights, bursts of laughter — and then everyone gathered in a single frame, as if to hold on to the night. These photographs keep the light of that first chapter.
