Consisting of seventy black and white photographs, the series grouped under the title L’État des choses, contains both snapshots and studio shots. This photographic set was assembled to translate a desire to enter the thickness of the world, in its materiality, through the signs and phenomena it produces. Conceived in the form of sequences, the book operates by blocks of intensities through which not only a point of view is drawn, but also a variation of perspectives where only relations prevail. By considering the studio as a laboratory and the photographic snapshots as a capture, the resulting experimentation gives rise, over the course of the book, to a certain form of strangeness in beings and things. This book is accompanied by a short text by Patrice Blouin.
