In her series juste une pause, Michal Florence Schorro takes a stroll through a quiet Japanese cityscape, empty of human presence. The images alternate between architectural details and sceneries with natural elements, and share an impression of peace. Focusing on materiality, structures and colors, abstract compositions are created.

 

By being fully present behind the camera as she was taking each picture, Schorro was able to regain awareness of objects she had overseen for a long time. The very act of taking those pictures thus became an exercise of mindfulness, which is reflected in her pictures.

 

The publication juste une pause gathers 71 images and was self-published early in 2020.

Michal Florence Schorro, juste une pause

«It makes me feel alive and safe to be in a city, surrounded by many people and different cultures.»

About the Artist

Michal Florence Schorro (1987) lives and works in Zurich. She studied Visual communication at Bern University of the Arts (HKB) and received an MA in Art Direction and Photography from the Ecole cantonale d'art de Lausanne (ECAL) in 2013. With a distinct fascination for urban spaces, her photographic work investigates places that build and define identities. 

 

Schorro’s photographic practice focuses on urban spaces, where she feels the most at ease, and where every neighborhood reminds her of a chapter of her life. The constantly evolving urban space is a site that holds her memories, and each picture she takes traces her impressions of a given place at a given time.
