Collection of sketchs by Jean-Pierre Martinez
“Him and Her” is a collection of 17 dialogue-based sketches featuring a contemporary couple, with no first or last names, in a series of intimate exchanges that are at times comical, at times melancholic, and often tinged with dark or absurd humour. Each sketch stands on its own, but together they form a conjugal chronicle that is both intimate and universal, exploring the everyday life of a couple through its rituals, frustrations, illusions, and survival instincts.
