Malala Andrialavidrazana Echoes (from Indian Ocean)
The Indian Ocean often evokes fantasized visions of exotic dreams. Far from postcards clichés, Malala Andrialavidrazana brings us discreetly into private spheres in Antananarivo, Mumbai, Durban and Reunion Island, and presents the viewer with day-to-day atmospheres, still-lives and fragmented portraits with elegance and subtlety. She is driven by the diversity of those communities and how identities are expressed in a world of mass communication and where uniformity leaves its mark on people. Playing with boundaries in general and more particularly with the passages existing between anthropology, contemporary art and architecture, she explores the authenticity and intimacy of the middle classes in the urban areas on the Indian Ocean. French artist of Malagasy origin, Malala Andrialavidrazana lives in Paris. Her work has been exhibited extensively in various contemporary art institutions and events in Europe and Africa. She was awarded the 2004 Prize of the HSBC Foundation for Photography. In 2012, she received the support of the French Institute and the National Art Council of South Africa to develop her project.
