Nostalgie

La nostalgie, telle que la décrit Sam Steward, incarne une tristesse dépourvue d’objet spécifique – une nostalgie d’un passé qui semble aussi irréel que l’avenir est inaccessible. Elle porte clairement une qualité utopique, tendant vers un « passé futur », qui n’existe qu’idéologiquement.

« Nostalgie et sentiment d’impossibilité réunis » (Clark, 2004, p. 25).

Je me souviens du cardigan en coton de ma mère orné d’un motif de cochon. Dans la vision de Le Corbusier, il imaginait une « machine à vivre » qui associait santé et beauté.

« Le moi est un texte… un projet, quelque chose à construire. »

Cela s’entremêle avec des fantômes modernistes, explorant les thèmes du voyage, de la technologie et de l’aérodynamique.
