Signed; Damien Daufresne - Undertow - 2022

“或许是过去二十五年里看到的最好的书之一，一件把摄影与绘画紧密相连的物件，由一位能够以普世之声说‘我’的艺术家完美创作而成。构建一个漂浮世界的独特方式，在表达的边界上让情感交汇，在个人历史与梦境、身体与自然、温柔与不确定之间。”——Christian Caujolle

“Probably one of the best books seen in the last twenty five years. An object in which photography and painting are intertwined, perfectly created by an artist able to say ’I’ with a universal voice. A unique way of building a floating world, at the limits of representation, to let emotions mix, between intimate history and dreams, body and nature, tenderness and uncertainty.” - Christian Caujolle

我们是我们自己的宇宙。每一个人。生活是一段穿越如此无可估量的宇宙集合的旅程。这段旅程会如何展开、会把我们带向何处，不单单由我们自己决定。因此我们会迷失，会等待一只援手或一次美好的巧合。因此我们会对未来作出投射，也会回忆过去。一切都会回来。万物流转。只是在人生这条路上，在某处，每个人都找到那个唯一的、作为家的地方。家，不是以四堵实体墙的意义来理解，而是由不同宇宙的星座共同构成的、可以称之为家的空间。这也是它最美丽的部分。在他的新书中，达米安·道弗雷斯内揭示了这样一个宇宙的秘密——Undertow。

正如玛丽·贝洛吉在她的随笔中写道：“画面轮流打开又折叠回自己。它们重获声音、重量，是否会展现深度，取决于时刻。皮肤的颗粒回应着摄影材料，像飞过的椋鸟一样扩张与收缩，解开同一束光的多重变形，一张被众生与场所共享的肉体，在不同的密度、渗透度、透明度下体现。此处彼处，胶片被划伤、盐渍、指纹点缀，遇见可以以各种形式被感知为被爱的世界的纹理，在它所振动的悖论中被拥抱。

这是一种起点，或许也是终点，以一个开放的椭圆形组织起来，标记着自山脊到火山口的运动心跳。融合、分离、门槛。贯穿时间、王国、元素的路径被描摹再描摹，永不停歇。活跃的浪潮贯穿始终，在无法测量的水与天空之间像脆弱的桅杆，尘埃在景观中盘旋，从鲸鱼到蝴蝶，一直到有翼的混凝土。”——玛丽·贝洛吉的文本。

We are our own universes. Each of us. Life is a journey through an immeasurable collection of such universes. How this journey will go, where it will take us, is not only up to us. Hence our being lost, waiting for a helping hand or a happy coincidence. Hence our projections of the future, but also memories of the past. Everything comes back. Panta rhei. But somewhere on this trail, each of us finds this one and only place that is home. Home not in a sense of the material four walls, but such constellations of different universes that together make up this space that can be called that. And this is the most beautiful part of it. In his newest book, Damien Daufresne unveils the secret of one such universe – Undertow.

As Marie Belorgey writes in her essay: “The pictures open and fold back on themselves by turns. They renew their sound, their weight, unfold their depth, or don’t, depending on the moment. The skins’ grain answers the photographic material’s, alternately expanding and tightening like starlings in flight, unravelling the metamorphoses of a same, luminous momentum, a flesh shared by beings and places, manifested following different degrees of density, permeability, transparency. And here and there the film, scratched, smeared with salt, studded with fingerprints, meets with the texture of a world we can feel is loved in all its forms, embraced according to the paradoxes it vibrates with.

It’s about beginnings, perhaps about ends, articulated in an open ellipse that marks out the moving, growing heart of things from crest to crater. Fusion, separation, thresholds. A path traced between times, reigns, elements. Relentlessly redrawn. The living wave throughout, precarious pier between waters unmeasurable and sky, of dust animating into a landscape, from whale to butterfly. All the way to winged concrete.” ； 玛丽·贝洛吉的文本。
