Winner 2020

Romain Roucoules

Born in 1991, Romain Roucoules lives and works in Paris. Former student of Gobelins (Paris), he graduated from ÉCAL (Lausanne) with high honours. He is working on the naturalisation of new technologies and how they challenge the way we conceive and perceive our environment. His work proposes to update issues related to the photographic medium by confronting them with contemporary means of image production.

Global Solutions, 2019

Following the Brazilian presidential elections, the Amazonian rainforest, an environmental icon forgotten for some twenty years, is returning to the forefront and once again crystallises the general concerns.

This project, presented in the form of an installation, brings together modern simulacres from different backgrounds. Distant consequences, close causes. Between collective memory and collective forgetfulness, Global Solutions questions the way we perceive distant realities, observed through the prism of technological tools.
