Twenty-five kilometers to be explored on foot or by bike, along meadows and forests interspersed with picturesque hamlets and villages. You may see and feel the area, but the particular spirit of the places and their inhabitants remains out of sight.
To remedy this, between July 2021 and February 2022, eleven photographers were invited to meet a handful of inhabitants. The pictures resulting from their meeting tell us about experiences and relationships with the living and the elements.
From the language of trees to the virtues of medicinal plants, the mysteries of cup-and-ring stones and the magic of the alembic, the photographers reveal worlds reserved for those in the know. Playing on the perception of atmosphere, the images offer a glimpse of unique concerns, knowledge and know-how – representation of secrets for some, evidence for others!
