Deux restitutions publiques de la résidence sont en préparation!

The PAV is a territory in suspension, governed by the rigour of land titles and surface rights. Between what has been and what will be planned, negotiated and drawn, there exists a dense zone, traversed by overlapping human logics. But in the shadow of these great flows, more quietly, something else is at play. In the cracks, along fences, or on the compacted ground of parking lots, another geography has taken hold, pioneer plant communities, pollinators and ruderal species occupy the interstices. 

UNREGISTERED departs from this silent cohabitation to propose an ecological and photographic survey of the territory. We want to conduct an inquiry from this position: not to observe from above, but to place ourselves at the level of its unregistered occupants, close to the ground, inside a breach. The residency is an opportunity to survey the PAV at this millimetric scale, slowly, with attention, to bear witness to the density of what the territory contains.






ARNAUD BOSTELMANN, FLURINA GRADIN, PIERRE MARMY

Arnaud Bostelmann, Flurina Gradin, and Pierre Marmy share an interest in marginal territories, spaces that human logics cross without fully registering. Their collaboration brings together two complementary practices: Flurina Gradin works as a designer and urban ecologist, connecting scientific expertise, place-based experience and urban biodiversity through her company Wild Spots; Arnaud Bostelmann and Pierre Marmy are Zurich-based photographers who use the image as a tool of spatial investigation, revealing what the built environment contains but rarely acknowledges.
Together, they develop projects at the intersection of ecological survey and photographic production, where rigorous observation of non-human life meets a critical reflection on media and representation. Their work asks what it means to document a presence that leaves no administrative trace, and what forms of restitution might do justice to it
