Au bord de la Seine

The attacks in Paris in 2015 placed the city under constant vigilance, a condition it has not been able to leave behind since.
For a time, life appeared suspended, as a wounded country confronted a new and unfamiliar threat to its values.

When I arrived in Paris in 2016, the atmosphere I encountered was different from what I had expected.
Rather than a city frozen by fear, I found a city moving forward.

Daily life continued.
Quietly, insistently.
