Masterfully and skillfully crafted by Magali Moscardo, this work is unique in that it was entirely “shot” on film with a Holga.
This camera possesses all the flaws that today’s cameras strive to correct: blur, distortion, vignetting…
This led Magali Moscardo to the idea of exploiting these flaws to create a photographic style of her own. “I create my images!” she says.
Nice squared… it’s unusual, it’s emotion, the city of Nice enhanced by the square format, black and white, the Holga, and the talent of Magali…
On the menu: the Promenade, the port of Nice, Rauba Capeu, the Gairaut waterfall, the Auer confectionery, Cours Saleya, Place Masséna, Cimiez cemetery, the Régina, etc. An alternation between familiar tourist places and more secret spots that will speak to the locals of Nice.
Having lived in Nice for over thirty years, Magali naturally started photographing the city, trying to reveal its hidden facets. “I try to beautify life through my photos, to bring pleasure to viewers, to surprise them, to provoke thought…” She is part of the collective: Photon.
