“Sublimation for an ideal present”

In fifteen photographic tableaux combining inspiration from land art and the Pre-Raphaelites, and an art book composed of texts, calligraphies and vegetal matter, Gérard Rancinan and Caroline Gaudriault construct the first part of their new trilogy, which recounts a story of men and women confronted by their times, the Earth, and themselves. Like a reflection in the water in which Narcissus watches the transformation of his own face, what is at stake today is a projection of the world of tomorrow.
