I started taking pictures of my brother Guillaume and his partner Sonia in 2008; both living behind closed doors with the alcohol addiction. In this closed doors where I found my place and felt good, I photographed their relationship, the intimate moments, happy or unhappy, that I share with them.
Unfortunately reality quickly gained the upper hand, and its place between us. They both died. At no moment did I ever think about the end. Strangely, I considered them indestructible. This book is an homage and a testimony of their love and of my love for them. / Margot Wallard
My Brother Guillaume and Sonia is her first book.
