"A delicate and poetic tale of female intimacy, friendship, and the negotiation of the fluid territory between adolescence and young adulthood.
A territory suspended between impossible identities, in conflict with one another, where no element can find its place, and they all seem to have lost it.
The bodies are caught in a pending state – as if uncertain of how to proceed – with an unrelenting power pulling them upwards, towards young adulthood and a second powerful and untamable force pushing, with equal strength, in the opposite direction, towards childhood – a realm that is fading away without ever truly disappearing.
Each one of Guen’s photographs speaks of such push and pull struggle where two bodies at war with one another see in the other, and in their unity, their worst enemy: the obscure object of their desire as well as the embodiment of their worst nightmare."
