Algeria from East to West,<\/strong> 2003<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n

Bruno Boudjelal<\/a><\/h5>\n<\/div><\/section>\n

“…I tried again to go wherever I could; but traveling in Algeria is, each time, a painful and difficult experience. It borders on the unspeakable. I always have the impression of falling into a bottomless pit from which I will never get out.<\/p>\n

These comings and goings, even if I am no longer with the family, are so many links that are woven between here and there, between my history and that of Algeria, between autobiography and photography; so many crossings, so many attempts to go beyond a blurring of reality, an apparent opacity. An approach full of contradictions that oscillates between shadow and light, with also the passage from black and white to color.<\/p>\n

In the spring of 2003, among other things, I crossed Algeria from east to west. It was an old project that I had wanted to carry out in 1993 but which I had had to renounce at the time because of the murderous madness that the country was experiencing. The trip lasted 25 days and I left from the Tunisian border to go to the Moroccan border.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>

This trip was geographical, of course: the mountains of Kabylia, the Mitidja plain, Algiers, the center, the Oranese … it was also an opportunity to meet the people who make this country, to see what happens to them and to know their hopes.<\/p>\n

I also took advantage of the relative calm that the country was experiencing to go to the areas (Central region, Mitidja, Western region) where terrorism had presented its most violent forms: large massacres, arbitrary arrests, disappearances, etc. In these places, the populations were caught between the violence of armed groups, arbitrariness and the terror of state forces.<\/p>\n

It was during this stay that I felt that my work in Algeria, at least in this form, was coming to an end. \u00bb<\/p>\n
