About the Book
The 34 photographs in this book were taken by Janin in 2006, in Cambodia where he used to live. Photographs are produced using six handmade cameras. These unique cameras are loaded with black & white traditional photographic paper, which produce negative images on paper. After development, the negative images are scanned and edited as positive images.
The juxtaposition of three supposedly identical pictures one to another creates a panoramic landscape that doesn’t exist in reality but that’s still bound to this reality. Once the created landscape has emerged from the editing process in both the darkroom and lightroom, it brings back to surface clues and evidences – or samples – of the place visited.
These Cambodian pictures are at the origin of "The Substance beneath the Visible" photographic project. Janin has since continued to produce images from the United States where he has lived and from France where he currently resides.
A book from the French collection is also available on Blurb: http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/900855
A book from the American collection will come out soon…
