The relationship between a French teenage single mother and her son has always been peculiar. The mother, born in 1983, had a complicated life, facing abandonment and various hardships. Despite a peaceful childhood, their relationship deteriorated due to her severe drinking problem and his rebellious nature. A stroke in 2015 left her with lasting disabilities, transforming their dynamic. Photography became a therapeutic tool, helping them reconnect and fostering new emotional bonds. The project explores the son’s origins and their complex relationship through photography, revealing new perspectives on their identities.
