Publisher Note

Celine Marique works on communication, sensuality and eroticism, transgression. She uses the visual experience to question the unspeakable. She presents sequences, series or montages inspired by literature, cinema and her own experiences.

Little Bombardier features riso printed photographs of family scenes, landscapes, urban settings or, more generally, scenes from daily life. The title refer to the David Bowie song:

War made him a soldier
Little Frankie Mear
Peace left him a loser
The little bombardier

Lines of worry appeared with age
Unskilled hands that knew no trade
Spent his time in the picture house
The little bombardier

Frankie drank his money
The little that he made
Told his woes to no man
Friendless, lonely days

Then one day, in the ABC
Four bright eyes gazed longingly
At the ice-cream in the hand of
The little bombardier

Sunshine entered our Frankie's days
Gone his worries, his hopeless maze
His life was fun and his heart was full of joy

Two young children had changed his aims
He gave them toffees and played their games
He brought them presents with every coin he made
