Finalist 2020

Joanne Joho & Thomas Lopes

Thomas was born in 1996 in the suburbs of Lyon. After a preparatory class at the École des Beaux-Arts in Beaune, France, he studied design at HEAD–Geneva. After obtaining a Bachelor in Visual Communication in 2019, he is currently undertaking a Master's in Space & Communication. Born in Geneva in 1996, Joanne also obtained a Bachelor in Visual Communication at HEAD–Geneva where she graduated in 2019. She works today as a graphic designer.

Thomas and Joanne shared the same workspace during their three years of Bachelor become good friends. This friendship led to a first collaboration on an exhibition design project. Attracted by photography and sensitive to the current ecological context, they both joined forces again for the realisation of this project.​

All Inclusive, 2019

To recharge your batteries, All Inclusive selects its most beautiful destinations each season. For its first edition, take advantage this winter of the original landscapes of the planets Oodaaq, Achernar, Nypher and allow yourself the luxury of the unexplored at an affordable price. Reconnect with forgotten pleasures such as hiking, swimming or skiing! Ready to make your friends envious?

This dystopian travel agency with extraterrestrial destinations testifies to an inordinate absurdity: that of an eternal privileged flight at the expense of a necessary change. Leak incidentally motivated by the greed to show that one always has more than the other. Here, the luxury of going on vacation to discover new landscapes.

Through this project, we are questioning the link between tourism and ecological disaster. The ease of access to all destinations in the world has paradoxically contributed to their deterioration. In fact, what is the point of traveling if the Earth has nothing more to offer? There remains only one solution for this greedy human being, to go always further.

At the bend of the mountains carrying many beliefs and superstitions, we wanted to take this series of photographs while remaining in contemplation of Swiss imagery, while diverting it to call for a new imagination. Our ambition is thus to recall that what is commonplace today may soon seem extraordinary.

All of the images were taken in the Jura and the Alps. The entire project is available in a magazine that we would like to make available.
