Matete Martini FAITS DIVERS_ES

ON A CONTEMPORARY PRACTICES MADE OF A MIX AND UNDEFINED PROCESSES

Perhaps I should have treated the book more conventionally, following a chronological order or focusing on a specific project, as photographers or painters often do. However, I have always been drawn to unconventional elements, even in my cooking. I am excited to introduce this paper collection, which essentially mirrors my life, featuring a variety of actions, objects, processes, and previously undiscovered works.”

Faits Diverses is my way of being, visually presented and printed, a journey born more than sixteen years ago in and continuing until today. They encompass more uncertain works, spontaneous creations, found objects, observations of people, and numerous events. These elements have all been part of a cohesive work that has come together over time, often involuntarily and amidst struggles.
