“Blindness
August 10, 2009
Two blind people with their dogs say goodbye.
The woman waits for the bus.
She has just hit her face violently against a stretched cable.
No gesture, it doesn’t matter, everything happens through the voice.
Not seeing, ever.
Being in a world.
Not knowing.
I helped her take the bus.
Her eyes are always closed.
She has long pink nails, red hair tied up in a bun.
I watch her, she just opened her eyes to immediately close them again.”
I still see her.
June 15, 2010, Paris” – Hélène Juillet
