Lecture de paysage au parc Edouard André

The landscape is the (m)primary heritage of our civilization. It carries within it clues to the past, the image of the present, and the perspective of future images. This witness is interesting in its sensitive and evolving capacity. Moved by the writings of Henry David Thoreau, biologist Rachel Carson, and author Donna Haraway, I observe how humans shape their surroundings and question our ability to adjust to change.The philosopher Bruno Latour invites us to “land.” It is from this perspective that the project “Landscape Reading” offers a personal observation and a collective narrative around a landscape based on the codes of photography.The idea is to start with the existing landscape (historical, geographical, scientific, social data, interviews with local residents, etc.) and add the emotions felt by being in this landscape. The technique of constructing a photograph used by the visual artist serves here to structure his perspective, refine his analysis, feel part of the landscape, and create a dialogue around a subject to be explored.Based on documentary research and interviews, Sébastien Ronsse guides a group to observe, decipher, and be present in the landscape: how do we orient ourselves? What do we see? What type of landscape surrounds us? What clues does our observation provide?The viewer gradually discovers the structure of the landscape and themes related to it: for example, the “natural” and the “transformed,” the hybridization of landscapes, the industrialization of landscapes, the stimulation of the senses, the invisible part of the living beings around us, cohabitation, etc. Sébastien Ronsse ultimately offers a guided tour of the landscape and invites us to discuss our place in it and that of living beings.
