In 2005, Michel Campeau, sensitive to the digital shift, began photographing darkrooms, the laboratories that form the foundation of analog photography, which is rapidly disappearing. At the same time, he collected vernacular photography and continued his creative work through the photography of others, building up collections of anonymous photographs or archives that he found on the Internet or during his travels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In this book, he creates a kind of temporal montage from these documents, many of which are now impossible to find. He mixes his own photographs with those he appropriates, constructing a history of silver-based photography while weaving his own photographic autobiography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
