On 25 December 2014,
I make photographs that morning, in Corrèze.
The next day, we learn, following a routine blood test, Suzanne, our 7 year old daughter, suffers from leukemia.
She was repatriated on December 29 in Paris at the Trousseau Hospital.
This is the first part of the book.
From that moment, I Suzanne photography in hospital, at home …
We decide, she and I, to do a project together on the objects of the hospital, the toys from home, his daily life. I propose that we make a book every two, she wants to. This is the second part of the book.
I told him that the third part will be leaving the hospital, his recovery, major holidays … the life resume.
She is not healed, she left June 25, 2015.
I decided to photograph the holidays without it.
This is the third part of the book.
The book “I’m not afraid of the dark” was printed in July 2016.

Photographe
Julien Magre was born in 1973. He is presented by the gallery Le Réverbère in Lyon since March 2017. He is attached to the photographic object – the “box” of photographs. Photography exists and applies through the book, an object that can be used in its field and manipulate to make its own.
He has directed several exhibitions in galleries and festivals: in France, Italy, Australia, the Netherlands, and New York in 2003, where his exhibition was sponsored by Michael Stipe.
