Anne-Marie is a storyteller: She likes to imagine people as characters, to invent trajectories and relationships for them. She maps new territories that connect presence and absence, present and past, life and death, reality and imagination, visible and invisible.

Anne-Marie is a collector: of banal images, accounts of everyday anecdotes, fragmented memories, discarded ceramic cats. As accumulation leads to new understandings, collections are never completed, nor utterly demystified. They evolve to become new entities.

Anne-Marie is an examiner: She looks for what exists outside the image, forgotten moments of a story, people who do not leave many traces. She likes unexpected discoveries, the possibility of always finding more, and having permission not to know everything. She guesses, she supposes, she invents. She thinks that creating fiction is better than forgetting.

Anne-Marie is an illusionist: She plays with reality, time and space. She uses video to record her actions and to encapsulate endless movements. She photographs what she thinks will eventually fade or disappear. She draws to make sure she erases what she does not want to see. She writes to ask questions and to give hints. Her stories are at least partially true.
