Blue Banner
This interpretation of the image of photojournalist Antoine Désilet (1927 - 2019) simultaneously represents my image work process (through Photoshop windows and layers), the archival research behind the project and the insertion of another generation into the historical perspective of the counterculture by adding an "S" to the original text in blue. The original image shows two people kissing in front of the Expo 67 Youth Pavilion sign.
