Laurent Roch

Laurent Roch is a French photographer from Paris.

His pictures have a sort of silence. Roch has an eye for special moment in the ordinary. Images you could pass everyday without noticing, but when photographed expose strangeness.

Photographic grid projects with Blake Andrews

Some time ago I shared some work of Blake Andrews here. Blake is also a participant in photographic grid projects. The basic idea about a grid project is to divide the map of an area into squares, and then systematically go make pictures in these squares. Ideally multiple photographer participate, thus creating a body of work that varies in style.

When he lived Portland, Blake Andrews participated in the Portland Grid Project. And after moving to Eugene, he started a Eugene Grid Project. There is a link on his site here. But unfortunately it points to an unknown web address.

The vernacularity of the pictures produced in these projects is refreshing and inspiring.
