Biography
Mathieu Pernot's photography is rooted in a documentary approach, but one which subverts the protocols to explore alternative modes of storytelling. His method is either to produce photo series – which sometimes resonate with each other in terms of characters, timeframes and themes – or to work with archive images. Whether it is with his own images or by appropriating those of others, Mathieu Pernot examines and explores the many different modes of representation to create multi-voiced narratives.
