Nobody photographs women like Camille Vivier.
a collection of photographs of women that span the last 10 years. We met with her to discuss how she’s redefining the notion of femininity -- on and off camera.The editor, Jurgen, got in touch with me first. I have always wanted to put together a book, but I never really get the time for that kind of project; I don’t really work in a serial way. After our initial meeting, Jurgen took a deeper dive into my body of work and we put together a book based on photographs that span a decade.
Yes, I twist them. That's the whole concept of the book – to twist something on its axis in order to create room for humour. A reference that’s at once pop and obsolete; a little bit mannered and contemporary. I really like the idea of twisting references, playing with artifice.Sculpture, no, but working on the photo as if it’s an object, yes. It’s a matter of not thinking about the image but thinking about volumes and shapes in space. I also work on frames -- in plaster and concrete.
You often take photographs of places and things that are a bit offbeat. Abandoned theme parks, bizarre sculptures, dinosaurs made of concrete… Where do you find these spaces that seem like lost lands? I do my research. These things might seem like archaeological relics, but actually, much of it is just outside of Paris. You see those kinds of sculptures a lot in the south suburbs. There’s a spot I really like, by the Marne river, where a professor has made sculptures out of the stone blocks of a bombed bridge.in Italy -- a convent restored by architect Tomaso Buzzi. But I usually prefer to photograph the details; I’m not necessarily trying to document the space in its totality.
I don’t really know; it has to do with a feeling, with identification. I like the idea of a mythological world populated by women. The other day, someone asked me when I first became aware of the concept of glamour, and I realised it was when I was little, when someone gave me a Divine colouring and cut-out book.Yes, that Divine! The issue of identity always intrigued me. I like women who are super made-up, feminine and strong all at once. Well, women or men!I admire female characters.
