Programme
Swiss Life Foundation exhibition - Vincent Fournier and Sébastien Gaxie
The Centre Photographique Marseille presents Vincent Fournier (photographer) and Sébastien Gaxie (composer), both winners of the Prix Swiss Life à 4 mains 2022-2023 awarded by the Swiss Life Foundation.
The exhibition features Vincent Fournier's augmented book and images from his work Auctus Animalis (augmented animal). This work is an initiatory fable about the metamorphosis of hybrid species into constellations, a poetic interrogation of the transformation of living things. At the crossroads of speculative biology and surrealism, Vincent Fournier and Sébastien Gaxie's project is an astonishing futuristic bestiary combining history and anticipation, memory and science fiction. Paying homage to the animal kingdom, biology and bioacoustics, the three mediums of photography, literature and music will intersect, take shape and question the new relationships possible with nature in our world of tomorrow.
