Yuzuke, Japan, 2013. This old man will have worked all his life in the shipyard of Onomichi, a port city located on the shores of the Seto Inland Sea. Japan is facing a serious labor shortage. Employers are unable to hire and, with the unemployment rate at only 2.8%, there are few job seekers. Few immigrants, too. And, because of the declining birth rate, there aren't enough young people to replace old ones retiring. In Japan, it is normal for workers to have a job until they are in their 70s.
Floriane is a traveler in search of strong encounters she captures with intensity through her camera. The series “How Much Can You Carry?” is based on her fascination with the long lines of walkers carrying various objects all along African roads. Started in 2012 in Ethiopia, and still ongoing, this series now spans 4 continents.
Through her framing, both frontal and direct, Floriane stages each of her subjects with what matters most to them, which can be basic necessities, essential materials or precious possessions.
This series has two levels of understanding: the first refers to modern caryatids*; the second tells us about the weights we all carry, physical and psychological (weight of tradition, education, family, etc.).
*Caryatid: a sculpted female figure serving as an architectural support in place of a column or a pillar supporting an entablature on her head.
