Sophie Huguenot – Television

For over a decade, Sophie Huguenot observed the process of presenting the daily news at RTS Info, a broadcaster in French-speaking Switzerland. Her work with a large-format camera made it possible for her to counter the frantic pace of reporting with a tool designed for slowness. She focused her attention on adjunct scenes in the television studio, on the in-between spaces in the fabric of production, and on the banality of day-to-day work.

Huguenot applies surgical precision and doggedness in her examination of the changes happening in the way images are produced and of our relationship with them. 'The transitional phase in a fundamental process of change affecting audiovisual media is manifested in this vast collection of photographs.' (Bernard Rappaz)
