Autoportrait en malade par d’autres is a selfportrait made from  materials taken from others (video and voice used).

In 2011 we worked on the theme of memory. My own memomries about my hospitalization when I was young are falsce and my mother’s memories too. I have only good memories and she has only bad ones. I wanted to know the truth about this event and started to make interview, looking for myself.
I also use a video from a documentary shot at the hospital.
