Still alive. Scarlette Coten

I love these cheerful, curious people, who agree to pose. With delight.

So, between reality and fiction, I photograph the inward journey, I’m witness to my experience, following the thread of my inspiration, where play and mise en scène bring us together, beyond our own cultures, for a moment of shared happiness.

At each reunion, I am welcomed by these words: “still alive! “

These photographs are the illustration of the humor, the enthusiasm, and the modernity of an unknown people. Forgotten, threatened, but alive.
