La nuit craque sous nos doigts (The Night Cracks Beneath Our Fingers) brings together several years of photography by Sarah Ritter. This first monograph by the photographer is accompanied by an original play by Christophe Fiat, composed on the basis of the photographs in the book.

Sarah Ritter does not work by anticipation, but by “opportunity,” surveying various terrains without knowing precisely in advance what she is looking for. These opportunities allow her to accumulate a number of images that gradually find their place in her work and come together. She seeks a tipping point between the visible, what is shown in the image, and what is not seen. At the heart of this blind intention, the montage of images becomes like a chorus, an affirmation of ambiguity.
