In Praise of Sensibility - A Visit with Hamedine Kane
L'éloge du sensible is a chapter in a new series of photos and videos by artist Hamedine Kane, stemming from his iconographic research for the project "Le livre d'image, Africa XXI #1, Les luttes". Anchored in a perpetual wandering movement, this approach explores the manifestations of the living, bypassing anxiety-provoking social and political situations. Kane favors intimate, secret spaces of production, mobilizing the power of becoming in motion. Unlike power, which is often oppressive, power always belongs to and serves the people. The confinement and violence inflicted on the people are not inevitable, for with power, the people engage in a permanent revolutionary process.
