The new collection “48 Vues” from Actes Sud reflects a desire to break free from the codes of the traditional coffee table book to imagine light objects. It explores changing formats adjusted to each work, in order to reveal unique writing and a sensitive, intimate look at the world. It enters a field of contemporary photography combining experimentation, continuous research, and travel without a destination. Since the age of 13, Julia Gat has built a body of photographic work at home by training her lens on the people around her: Khamsa khamsa khamsa is an autobiographical visual narrative in the form of a family archive.
