Romain Roucoules – Global Solutions

by Romain Roucoules

Following the Brazilian presidential elections, the Amazonian rainforest, an envi- ronmental icon, which has been forgotten for some twenty years, is back under the spotlight and once again the matter for general concern. Presented in the form of an installation, this project brings together modern simu- lacra from different backgrounds. Far consequences, near causes. Between collective memory and collective forgetfulness, Global Solutions questions the way we perceive distant realities, as observed through the prism of technological tools.

Credo

with Matthieu Gafsou

The aim of the Centre intercantonal d’information sur les croyances (CIC) is to map the religious diversity of our regions and to explain in a neutral way how the cantonal communities function. The director, Brigitte Knobel, contacted the ECAL to create a visual cartography of the communities. Second-year students were asked to photograph the project. They worked throughout the year on an assigned religious community, selected beforehand according to geographical and diversity criteria.
