In the context of the Anthropocene, the students of Ésad Saint-Étienne and Jean Monnet University looked at plastic resources in the medium of photography. They propose a responsible use of materials, look for possible new ways of engaging the photographic object, without adulterating it, in a field of sensitive investigation and to prove once again that it is an inexhaustible resource for plastic and semantic expression.
Aurélie Pétrel
Born in Lyon and a graduate of
the École Nationale des Beaux-
Arts in her home town, Aurélie
Pétrel now lives and works in
Paris, Rome and Geneva. Her
photographic practice questions
the status of the image, as
well as the mechanisms of its
production. Her latent shots
in the studio, of specific
landscapes and architectures,
street or indoor scenes can
be activated in the form of
installations.
