The image in general is itself a screen, the site where subject and object, self and other, intertwine to produce intersubjective meaning. 14 But, more specifically, as Dore Bowen describes the effects of the media screen, “the screen is what reveals or, when unaddressed, obscures the relation bet ..."

"Since 2003, Canadian photographer Michel Campeau has traveled the world to photograph darkrooms. These chambers of analog photography, where icons of picture making were crafted through the use of chemicals on silver gelatin paper, today seem like allusions to a time long gone. Martin Parr wrote about it: "Most photographers have spent hours and days in that peculiar environment known as the darkroom. Here, prints are magically created ..."

Over the last twenty years, the Toronto-based artist has developed an installation practice that, while eschewing easy classification, has resulted in a range of highly evocative works that are intellectually demanding, yet resonate on visual, visceral and mate ..."
