Enquete photographique neuchateloise 2015
Published for an exhibition at Musee des beaux-arts Le Locle, autumn 2015
This photographer and trained landscape gardener has worked on large projects since 2001. What territories say about identities is a core concern of his work. This series, made within the framework of a biennial commission, was created in a Swiss canton where infrastructure for mobility and social cohesion have been undergoing profound change for years. He set himself the task of questioning traces of these developments, following the route of an express rail project between the canton's two urban centers that was rejected by referendum.
