Joachim Romain focuses his gaze on the layers of information present in posters, elements of a mass consumer society. By exploring natural urban wear and the diversity of typography across different eras and countries, he develops experiences of tearing posters in the streets. In a certain lineage with ar5sts from the New Realism movement, such as Villéglé and Hains, he works with the materials offered by the city. Ini5ally, photography allowed him to document his observa5ons of urban poster walls. He now uses it to reveal our era, in which our eyes are constantly captivated
by images both in cities and on websites, fueling a frenzy of consumption. This attention has led to his series Fast Shop (2009), created from snapshots of online shopping sites. His images unveil bodies, while brand models almost disappear, expressing the excessive speed of a consumer trend. The brilliance of the photographic prints enhances the effect of sublima5on, the allure of the advertising image as one would see it on a screen.
