The first photobooths appeared in the 1920. Accessible to all, this cheap, automated process replaced the photographers. Alone or with others, in the privacy of the booth, a few coins were all that was necessary to leave with a self-portrait. People posed, laughed, made faces. This game, imagined from my collection of found photographs brings together 24 moving, anonymous portraits.
Born in 1973 in Fontenay-Sous-Bois, Sylvie Meunier, where she still lives and works, Meunier is a visual artist.
