In 2016 Anna-Alix is jury member of Skin, 5th edition Visible White Photo Prize.

“Trying to launch a magazine on photography, yet another one! Not a fashionable webzine, virtual, but taking the risk to go back to concrete, to what's tangible, as it used to be. Trying to start with less than zero cash and with a lot of energy, some real friends and a good dose of craziness. Rather than a 'magazine', let’s say an 'images album', as the ones we used to collect and to then brandish in the schoolyard (in the 70’s and 80’s). Revealing emerging photographs, waking up unknown images; restabilising a transmission. We do not intend to revolutionize photography; other better-established supports are doing so with talent and have done so for while now. We are going to ask you to be 'active lookeurs'. We hope some of our images will pin your heads - literally and metaphorically speaking. The effort here will be made to give a second life to old photographs and to try to inspire you through a selection that does not care about authors’ pedigrees and that worries more about the strength of an image”.
