DEAD LIGHT, BONE DRY (Thailand, 2004-2009).
In a series of interrelated photos Olivier Pin-Fat evokes his physical and mental confrontation with Bangkok. Beginning in 2004, during the infamous Thai war on drugs, he gives his subjective view of the ghastly political landscape. He does that by working with 135 and 120 millimetre film that he mauls like a vandal. The formlessness and distortion is a reflection of his state of mind, of the unpredictability of the city, and of what the city allowed him to rescue from the debris.
