James Webb introduces a captivating sound installation on the shores of Lake Geneva. Through his project “A series of personal questions addressed to Lac Léman”, the artist engages the lake in a dialogue that invites the audience to project their own answers as he poses questions without expecting a reply. Utilizing strategically placed speakers in public spaces, the installation alters the perception of the surroundings, inspiring fresh interpretations and new stories.
The exhibition showcases the works of the Geneva Photography Survey laureates from 2019, 2020, and 2021, focusing on the theme of mobility. A collaboration between the Geneva Library and the Geneva Photography Center, it highlights pieces by Zoé Aubry, Gabriela Löffel, and Laurence Rasti. Their projects explore the movement of people, the structuring of migratory flows, and bodily transformations, providing a critical perspective on migration policies and societal pressures.
