Sète 08 — Anders Petersen, 2008

Commissioned for the ImageSingulières festival, Sète 08 is Anders Petersen’s intimate and chaotic portrait of the southern French port town of Sète. Shot in 2008 and published as part of the festival's annual residency programme, the book brings Petersen’s signature visual grammar — grainy, close, almost fevered — to bear on a place often portrayed through Mediterranean cliché. What emerges instead is a dark, visceral, and deeply human street opera.
