Ilanit Illouz looks to the ground like an archaeologist in order to examine the properties and the stigmata of places marked by history. This is what makes up the phusis or natural physics which becomes the artist's research base. The four elements water, earth, fire and air and the exhaustion of themselves guide the artistic project.The visible or invisible trace becomes the narrative thread of Ilanit Illouz's work.

From her trip she brings back photographs and salt from the Dead Sea that she uses to reveal and cover her images in the manner of Niépce with bitumen from Judea as a photosensitive product for heliography.

These books are working documents for the artist that help her to form the corpu

The book Wadi Qelt, dans la clarté des pierre brings together the corpus of images produced in the Judean desert and documents this specific and plastic long-term work called Les Dolines (2016-2021).

About — EYD is an independent publishing house created in 2018 by Caroline de Greef that aims to explore and promote contemporary photography by publishing artist books. Time and its daily lyricism are thus at the heart of the various works published by the young publishing house.

The desire to bear witness to this world and the intention to introduce emerging artists is also just as tenacious as the desire to support them over time. This young catalogue shows today's world with its human failings and ordinary miracles and will continue to be built according to these themes.

The collaboration with artists is intended to be sustainable as a mutual support and a shared emulative trust - like that which binds the artist Ilanit Illouz and EYD, the first published artist whose work has since been rewarded and acquired by numerous institutions (Jeu de Paume, Paris Photo, Prix du Public Arles 2021, etc.).

EYD works with photographers and artists Élise Toïdé, Thomas Gauthier, Tokio Okaida, Anna López Luna, Mounir Gouri.
