Novembre
14 Feb, 2026
“November” is a series of analog photographs exploring darkness and light, cyclical time, and the ephemeral.November is marked by funeral rites such as the Day of the Dead and Samhain—a period traditionally understood as a threshold between worlds, when the boundary between the living and the dead grows thin. It is a time of remembrance, but also of melancholy and introspection.During ancient pagan celebrations, fires were lit for protection and purification. The month embodies transition: nature withdraws into winter, and we move toward the turning of a new year. November holds both endings and beginnings—death and rebirth intertwined.The photographs in this series have been brought together in a self-published book.
Jessica Gerard is a photographer whose work moves between an intimate, diary-like documentary approach and more recent experimental explorations with film. Across her practice, the body remains central—alongside questions of otherness, identity construction, intimacy, and destruction.Her photographs seek not simply to represent, but to transmit: an experience, a memory, an imagined fragment, a sensation. Through this personal and evolving language, she invites viewers into spaces where vulnerability and transformation quietly unfold.
