The Maison de l’enfance et de l’adolescence reimagines the hospital as an open, vibrant, and deeply human space. More than a healthcare facility, it blends contemporary architecture, natural light, and cultural programming to create a calming and inclusive environment. At the crossroads of medicine, arts, and science, it breaks down boundaries and turns care into a space for connection, expression, and engagement with the city.
Photographer Florian Luthi’s Fantômes Météores is inspired by the 1954 wave of UFO sightings across France, especially along the Franco‑Swiss border. From one of these accounts he revisits childhood landscapes—mist‑shrouded forests, deserted villages and the Jura—and composes a photographic narrative where truth wavers and legends endure. The series uses long exposures, muted palettes and staged absence to probe memory, collective fear and the boundary between documentary and myth. A collaboration with Fondation Convergences.

Organized by local teams with partner foundations, the event highlights initiatives in sustainable food, energy, responsible hygiene, reuse and socio-educational and socio-professional support. Interactive stands, demonstrations and participatory workshops invite everyone to experiment, exchange ideas and build community. Outside, a karting space lets visitors personalise a kart and try a mini-circuit. Families, neighbours and newcomers are welcome to connect, participate and learn together.
The Acedia project by French photographer Louise Desnos offers a contemplative photographic exploration of slowness, fatigue and intimacy. Through sensitive, minimalist compositions and staged portraits, Desnos elevates inertia and non-events into a quiet poetics. The series examines idleness as resistance, a space for introspection and for reclaiming autonomy. Photographs emphasize material textures, soft light and the presence of bodies at rest, inviting viewers to reconsider cultural prejudices about productivity and rest.
