I photograph and identify spaces that contain blank publicity panels.
What happens then is dictated by chance: whenever I discover a panel, as soon as possible I return to the same spot to photograph it by night.
I have edited a series of postcards, and pass them on to people who are not familiar with these places.
The idea is the following : first, select a card to claim ownership of it. Your subsequent intervention may take any shape or form.
The drawing, collage, cut-out, deletion, perforation (etc.), writing or text, a piece of news, a dialogue, a word (etc.) can be transposed onto the photo, spread over the back, or even totally cover it.
Please could you then kindly return the card to me, in a form that will be accepted by the post office.
The project consists of gathering together your works to illustrate, at a later date, either in the form of an exhibition or an edition / a publication, the thousand and one ways of perceiving and interpreting an image, a landscape, in accordance with your own personal experience.
If you like this approach and would like to participate in the project, please don’t hesitate to contact me via the section ‘Apply’.
See you soon,
Joel.
