Datarium – Geneva at the heart of living data

Datarium is a public, research-driven project that explores life sciences data through data visualization and narrative display.
Combining striking scientific visuals, data-driven graphics and first-person accounts, the exhibition traces how bioinformatics is reshaping oncology, personalized healthcare, epidemic preparedness, biodiversity and artificial intelligence. The work foregrounds the material and ethical dimensions of living-data production, inviting reflection on what data reveals, what it conceals, and how computational approaches transform our understanding of life.

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.
