Les heures inégales presents a number of photographs by artist Ghislain Mirat taken over a period of ten years, from 2011 to 2021. Shot all over the world using different film cameras, this is the first time that these images have been collected together in one book, reconstituting a narrative thread that punctuates a single day, stretching from Montreal to Cleveland, by way of Mexico, Marseille and Osaka. Nina Ferrer-Gleize accompanies this work of photography with a text on shadows, W.G. Sebald, and the elasticity of time.
Nina Ferrer-Gleize is a photographer, author and researcher. Her practice brings together images and texts in the field of documentary creation, and in the field of critical and theoretical research.
