"Au fil des jours" is a collection of works by French photographer Patrick Taberna (1964-). Taberna, whose work is rooted in travel, captures family, daily life, and memories with an intimate gaze, and has maintained close ties with photographers such as Bernard Pross and Robert Frank. This work is a representative piece documenting his family's daily life from 2000 to 2003, from the birth of his son Clément to the birth of his daughter Héloïse. He weaves together images of his wife and children, landscapes from his travels, fragments of the human body, and everyday objects, sometimes blurred and wavering, creating a world that transcends a mere family record, like an "autobiography born of chance." This work won the Fondation HSBC pour la Photographie in 2004 and was published by Actes Sud that same year. Bernard Pross also highly praised his photographs and contributed an essay. Taberna has deep ties to Japan, having held solo exhibitions for many years in various locations, including Gallery Tosei in Tokyo and TANTO TEMPO in Kobe. His work has been consistently featured in recent years, making him a photographer well-known in Japan. This book is symbolic of Taverna's style, where personal memories quietly overlap with the viewer's own memories.
