Being sensitive to this kind of strange and insignificant associations, I began juxtaposing quotations from the books and notes of these three protagonists. These impossible dialogues I sent them to Florian.

A few months after the first mailing I received the draft of what later became The imperceptible investigations of Emilio Ajar. Florian had used these impossible dialogues to draw a series of images, a series of holed images.

"The metal needle approaches the paper, the fist holds it and compresses it firmly, the forearm contracts: the tip pierces the paper. It comes out with a “plop”." (excerpt from the preface)

The imperceptible investigations are a series of booklets created by Florian Huet and Emilio Ajar whose images are printed by practicing a multitude of small holes in the paper.
The holes are made by a machine, a needling printer made by Florian Huet in his garage: la poinçonneuse.

The images obtained are delicate, the paper pierced with a multitude of holes becomes a lace to decipher.
