"Arco Iris" - Louise Carrasco

Louise Carrasco is a Chilean-born French photographer specializing in fashion photography and advertising. Recognizable by her playful, colorful pop style, she has worked for many brands, including Adidas, Aigle, Benetton, Converse, Levi's and Warner Music.

She will be presenting her " Arco Iris " series commissioned by Chilean stylist and art director Mima Zamall. This collaboration, initiated in 2017, is a true hybrid between the two artists' universes and a plunge into the Chilean fashion underground.

"They had 16" - Léo D'Oriano

Léo D'Oriano focuses his work on post-traumatic reconstruction. His series in Fukushima, Japan (2019) and Blackpool , UK (2018) explore what remains after a disaster, questioning the impact of crises on people's intimacy.

He won the French Ministry of Culture's Grande Commande Photographique with his series "Ils en avaient 16", documenting the daily lives of two groups of young people in L'Yonne after the pandemic.

Léo D'Oriano's work bears witness to a youth whose relationship with others and with intimacy has been redefined by the pandemic and an increasingly anxiety-provoking world situation.
