LE RETOUR is a book-object, the first photographic project by Roxane Cassehgari, born of her rediscovery of Iran after 20 years away.
On the border between a private diary and a photographic notebook, the book addresses the connection to a distant home and bears witness to a feeling shared by diasporas across the world: that moment of return, when one seeks to reconnect with a heritage.
ROXANE CASSEHGARI is an artist-photographer, born in France to an Iranian father and a Colombian mother. Alongside her artistic practice she is a human rights lawyer and researcher. Where law and research allow her to formulate questions about the world, photography becomes for her a space of freedom, a more intuitive ground on which to explore what words cannot grasp.
