Press release
All affairs have their share of ambivalence. Their mysteries and their sudden twists and turns. Their secrets and their revelations, both intimate and public, at one and the same time sensational and discreet. They never reveal themselves totally, they may never perhaps be completely resolved. They are little stories that mingle with bigger ones. They are knots to be undone to decipher lines and endings, links and ruptures, responses and yet more questions.
The affair we are dealing with here is no exception to the rule. It is all about lines crossing and joining up, weaving over the crevices to stop them up, traced by timid but confident fingertips over beloved faces or alongside bodies that vanished too soon.
Some lines can trace their distant roots on the inherited genealogical tree, passed down across generations, go back up centuries-old branches, and count all the buds. For others, one must invest resources and use one’s imagination.
