From January 20th to February 28th, 2023, Les Docks in Lausanne hosts the exhibition L’or bleu, a project realised by the first year students option Photography Option at éc a l.
This project developed by the first year students in Photography at ECAL, under the direction of photographer Nicolas Haeni, invites us to question the symbolism of water.
Since the dawn of time, this blue gold has intrigued and inspired, giving rise to interpretations which, even today, and perhaps even more than ever, inhabit literature, fine arts and performing arts.
Based on the quote by astrophysicist Hubert Reeves “On the cosmic scale, liquid water is rarer than gold”, the young photographers offer their personal and individual vision, exploring different fields of photography: still life, portrait, architecture or mise- en- scène.
