The exhibition brings together six artists/photographers, each telling stories in their own way, touching on both humanity and nature.
With her series Stèles, Gaëlle Choisne revisits images taken after the earthquakes in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, on January 6, 2010, centering her artistic discourse on the identity and resilience of the Haitian people.
Guillaume Greff’s photographic project focuses on tracking wolves and lynxes, creatures whose presence is known only through their traces—an eerie strangeness of an omnipresence that remains hidden or concealed.
Erik Kessels has made a name for himself as a champion and maverick of found photography, searching for discarded family albums to reveal their banal beauty and underlying strangeness.
Thirty years after the Dayton Peace Accords, Birgit Ludwig has been drawn into landscapes of contested memories, denial of crimes and genocides, persistent trauma, and varied imaginaries.
Marc Schroeder’s ORDER 7161 recounts the story of the Germans living in Rumania deported by Stalin’s order in 1944 to help rebuild the Soviet Union.
As for Séverine Peiffer‘s work (Transitions), it focuses on young people invited to explore their identity through photography using the historical wet collodion technique.

Together, these projects translate complex realities that go beyond the documentary format as the photographer is redefining them in unique ways to challenge our habitual ways of seeing the world.
