Jean Hincker

I was born in Paris in 1958. After film studies (assistant director), I returned to photography, which I've been practicing since 1975. Passionate about printmaking, I work closely with the lab and the camera. While I prefer to work in the creative field - exhibitions, publications, collections, etc. - I also carry out commissions for press agencies, companies and institutions.
"There is no such thing as chance, there are only appointments", as the poet Paul Éluard so aptly put it. There's no staging in these images, just a combination of circumstances that I patiently allow to take shape and capture. In search of traces of humanity, of scenes from the daily life of mankind and animals... in short, of existence.
