The Big Way

Initiated by Rubis Mécénat (south africa) and La cité des arts (Reunion Island), "the big way" is a collective documentary project. During various residencies, the photographers tried to revive the memory of the first road to run across the city of Saint-Denis from east to west: the rue du Grand Chemin (Long Way Street). This road still exists but is now called rue du Maréchal Leclerc. With the complicity of the inhabitants, they initiated a photographic work which seek to tell the daily life of the neighbourhood through still images, audio recordings and interviews.
