THE SOFT INVISIBLE WEIGHT OF YOUR ABSENCE TAKES SO MUCH SPACE by Aimé Dabbadie

A5, 36 pages, Black & white printing/Risograph printing, Hand sewn, Softcover, Edition of 50, 2024

“the soft invisible weight of your absence takes so much space” is a zine compiling photographs, paintings, prints, fabrics, visual poems, and texts exploring and diving in the themes of absence and grief.

Delving into what seems insignificant at first, such as unreadable notes, blurry photos, missed shots and faceless portraits, Aimé threads different multi-layered attempts to grasp the space that remains where absence begins. Haunted by the influence of writers such as Marguerite Duras, Sarah Kane, Jean Luc Lagarce and Fabrice Melquiot, they explore the different feelings tied to absence and grief relating to the concepts of identity, gender, relationships, family, the body and collective imaginaries. The result is visions of paradoxes, in-betweens and nonplaces, suspended outside of time and space, flying out of a stranger’s hands.
