Description

Screw York – An allegory of change and resilience

"Screw York" is a four-image photographic series that tells a cycle: that of a city confronted with its own destruction, then with its rebirth.

Everything begins in a peaceful atmosphere, under a blue moon. Then comes the eclipse: the city slips into shadow and the threat sets in. The third image marks the rupture. A hammer, symbol of human intervention, reduces the city to ruins. In the last photograph, nature gradually reclaims its rights: flowers and plants invest the still standing structures and a new balance appears.

Through this metamorphosis, it questions our relationship to change, to the balance between man and his environment and to the world's capacity to be reborn after chaos.

"Threat on Screw York" constitutes the second chapter of the series: the balance is disturbed. The eclipse gradually plunges the city into shadow, while a diffuse threat sets in. The shift has begun.

Mélina Delbert, Threat on Screw York
France  • 1972

Presentation

Mélina Delbert is a French photographer whose work explores reality by playing with its displacements, ambiguities, and poetic part.

Her photography navigates between staged compositions, landscapes, the animal world, and scenes captured in public spaces. Rather than sticking to a single genre, she builds series in which the image becomes the starting point for a story, an emotion, or a question.

Her work gives important place to détournement and double reading. An ordinary object can become a landscape, a daily scene can take on an absurd or poetic dimension, while nature and the animal world become the support for more intimate emotions.

With Screw York, she builds an imaginary city from industrial objects and tells, in four photographs, a cycle of imbalance, destruction, and rebirth. The series questions the place of man in his environment and the possibility of a new balance after the chaos.

Her work has been presented in several exhibitions and distinguished in international photography competitions.
