Nicolas Haeni created this image as part of a commission for Self Publish, Be Happy (SPBH). Its sleek studio-style epitomizes Haeni’s background of studying at the Ecole cantonale d’art de Lausanne (ECAL), which has developed a very strong presence in contemporary European photography, best described as Swiss with a playful twist: graphically impactful, somewhat absurd—International Style meets Fischli & Weiss. This image appears as included in the manual portion of the recent publication Self Publish Be Happy: A DIY Photobook Manual and Manifesto.
