Texts

Childhood, the beach, Africa, America, Paris also, the night and its lights, uncut flowers and fake ladybirds walking in a line and real surfers: in one hundred images Marion Dubier-Clark revives the fleeting joys she's tracked down over the last five years and which Polaroid has instantly granted their first moments of eternity. If one can find a common denominator amongst this fish mash, it can only be the solar inspiration of an artist so taken with the world and with life that she enlivens its still-lives and breaks down boundaries to form one unique atmosphere of paradise in producing a very personal gallery, which serves to reveal that strange is beautiful. With its noisy cameras, films in square and packets and lacquered colors delivered instantly, Polaroid - invented post war- will, they say, stop producing its magical chemistry as digital photography forces it out. But even if today this little book does not complete the impossible task of constituting an inventory of mirages which present a remedy against grayness, it nonetheless reads like a 100-visa passport to pure pleasure. (Hervé Le Goff,  introduction to 100 Polaroids).
