Edition of 200 copies.

From October 16 to November 28, 2020

There are two ways of looking at the world.
The Promethean way of making Nature speak in the service of men by forcing it through experimentation to reveal its secrets.
It is about the domination of Nature by man.
The other attitude is disinterested, it observes Nature while respecting it. This attitude is philosophical, aesthetic or poetic and respects the limits imposed by Nature. Because if this one wants to hide, isn’t it because the discovery of its secrets is a danger for man?
By technically intervening in natural processes, don’t humans risk disturbing them?

Comment se forme en nous l’image du monde? Les images, très abondantes, qui nous en sont offertes, concordent-elles avec celles qui sont le fruit de notre expérience directe? C’est en partant de cette interrogation qu’il est venu à Pierre-Philippe Hofmann l’idée de déterminer un ensemble de protocoles qui auraient pour objectif de synthétiser toute la diversité paysagère d’un territoire.
