Published to coincide with exhibitions of a series of photographs by Geert Goiris at the Mauvoisin Dam and the Museum of Bagnes in Le Châble, this sublime series of 30 images (together, Prolifération) suggests a timelessness and contained restlessness through its potential narratives of place and collective memory. Labyrinthine trees, strange rock formations, contemplative figures, man-made objects and wide mountain landscapes work together to instil a sense of serenity on the observer, yet one that evokes a certain tension, a primal longing generated by the environments Goiris portrays. Included is an insightful essay by Jean-Paul Felley and Olivier Kaeser. Comes with an original, signed print.
