Work from the Collection

Aliha Kama

Artist: Julien Creuzet
Date: 2017
Medium: Video
Collection: Lafayette anticipations - Fonds de dotation Famille Moulin

Based on his own experience and observations, and that of those close to him, in Aliha Kama Julien Creuzet develops a story about the foreigner. The process of integration of migrants lies at the heart of his work. In the course of a three-minute sung poem, the video develops a reflection on the relationship between the individual, their history, and their home, as summed up by this sentence taken from the work: “Where are we here, where is the we in me?”

Text written by Julie Robin as part of the partnership between the École du Louvre and Lafayette Anticipations – Fonds de dotation Famille Moulin.
