Preface by Michel Poivert
In Les particules , Manon Lanjouère forges an iconography that denounces an ecological tragedy by imitating natural marine elements with waste sculptures. Inspired by 19th-century botanical photography, she develops a fictional classification of these new creatures, somewhere between science and art.
This book therefore invites, through a poetic and artistic approach, a profound reflection on ocean pollution. Each image, through its visual beauty, invites contemplation but also, through its visual power, action. A book that testifies to the power of artistic creation in its capacity to transform society.
