This catalogue accompanies the exhibition Enrique Ramírez. People Are Places and is co-published by Galerie de l'UQAM (Montreal) and École nationale supérieure de la photographie (Arles). Born in Chile in 1979 during the Pinochet dictatorship, Ramírez evokes in many of his works the bodies of the "disappeared" who were killed by the regime and often thrown into the sea. In the absence of tombs and graves to grieve these lives cut short by terror, the sea becomes a place of memory and mourning. The exhibition also includes many references to modern-day migration policies and issues, where the sea is a kind of limbo in which civil rights are nullified.
