Edition from the book "Grâce à elle" by Didier Bizet:

The day after his mother's death, Didier Bizet took the task of paying tribute to him so as not to bury him forever. The silver prints and the Kodachrome® slides are precious material, arguably the best part of the heritage. They are the ones who reassure us in our perpetual quest for identity. With time running faster than it goes, our minds are obsessed with always worrying about tomorrow, but what are we doing so that the past doesn't get lost in our busy lives?
This is how the photographer begins a long work attempting to photograph his mother's funeral. Then he went to dig through his family's photographic archives in search of a past that is enigmatic to him. Stacks of boxes filled with carefully dated and filed slides, yellowed envelopes of prints from France during the time of President Albert Lebrun. Then, some memories resurface and then disappear. In the apartment, almost empty of meaning and soon of furniture, Didier Bizet photographs all the objects that saw him grow up before they too disappeared, like a painful but necessary inventory.

The prints from the book Grâce à Elle represent a family story from the beginning of the 20th century to the present day, a collection of tenderness, a sentimental parade. They bring together images from family archives taken by his father and grandfather, as well as photographs taken in the family apartment, like a poetic inventory.
