Joël Denot, exhausted by the ever-growing proliferation of images conveyed by new media, reconnects with the beginnings of the history of photography, its long exposure times, and the accidents they produce. Joël Denot does not hesitate to mention the failed photographs when discussing his work—those moments when the camera was accidentally opened, allowing light to veil the film and reveal unexpected colors in the print. For over twenty years, Joël Denot has worked with the Camera Obscura, learning to master the accidents caused by the meeting of light and the sensitive surface.

A meeting about these accidents with Hervé Perdriolle on Saturday, February 22 at 3 PM.
