For over a decade, Sophie Huguenot observed the process of presenting the daily news at RTS Info, a broadcaster in French-speaking Switzerland. Her work with a large-format camera made it possible for her to counter the frantic pace of reporting with a tool designed for slowness. She focused her attention on adjunct scenes in the television studio, on the in-between spaces in the fabric of production, and on the banality of day-to-day work.

Sophie Huguenot has been working as an independent artist and freelance photographer since 2009. She has taught photography at the École cantonale d’arts de Lausanne (ECAL) and at the École romande d’arts et de communication (ERACOM). She is based in Bern and Lausanne.

Jan Wenzel lives and works as an author and publisher in Leipzig. Together with Anne König and Markus Dreßen, he founded the publishing house Spector Books in 2001.
