“I wanted to create a free zone, a zone of porosity between everyone.
A refuge for anonymous people who are not frequented, a third place for monsters in distress, a theater for hybrid people, a book for chimeras. » MM. 2022

It would be vain to look for a documentary desire in Maxime Muller's images. Of these naked bodies, of these sometimes ephemeral meeting places,
of what remains of them, it is not a question of the world but of a personal and subjective exploration. Six years of an initiatory journey where questions of gender, consent, image rights and finally self-image come together.

This 300-page work describes an obsessive, astonishing practice of photography and self-publishing. This dark book, this raw work is intended as a transverse and chronological section at the heart of dense and dazzling archives.

Maxime Muller advances on a ridge where image
and violence collide, he speaks to us about politics and identity.
