Charlotte Gainsbourg: “Me siento bastante cómoda con la idea de ser una impostora”

Charlotte Gainsbourg, a renowned French artist, expressed her comfort with the notion of being a fraud as she tenderly stroked Daphné, her bull terrier, who was sleeping on the hotel sofa due to the sweltering heat outside. The sun beat down mercilessly on the historical city of Arles, where Van Gogh's shadows danced across the Roman stones, a testament to the painter's fleeting presence of just a few months.

The city had recently inaugurated a new edition of its celebrated photography festival, held annually in churches, cloisters, ancient hospitals, train workshops, and any alcove left vacant by history. Gainsbourg showcased her latest project, a vast series of ghostly images captured in her late father Serge Gainsbourg's Parisian home, now a shrine for those who continue to revere his musical genius and lyrical wit.

In her private suite, the air conditioning provided a reprieve from the oppressive heat. Daphné slept peacefully as her owner gently caressed her, but the conversation abruptly turned dark without warning.
