Fragile

Pierre-Alain Balmer

The project entitled "Fragile" is a series of portraits of people who have lost their footing, following a layoff, illness, depression, and who find themselves in precarious situations. We unknowingly rub shoulders every day in our hyperactive Swiss cities with marginalized people, which is the origin of this project, which began in 2018. We perceive a dehumanization of society.
