As part of the #idéesdébats conference series organised in partnership with Lieu unique and Nantes University, Anne-Marie Filaire and Diego Landivar will be putting forward their thoughts in the 2024-2025 cycle: Inhabiting, really? Caroline Lanciaux is hosting the event.
Deciphering the landscapes of the Anthropocene
Our way of inhabiting the planet, our territories, our cities and our social spaces has been shaped by a desire to master and control nature through technology since the so-called ‘modern’ era. Our landscapes have been transformed, our living spaces polluted. This conversation between the photographer, who has been observing the fate of excavated earth from the Greater Paris project, and the researcher, who has been thinking about the ecology of dismantling, will lead us to imagine ways in which we can turn our infrastructures around and come to terms with this legacy.

He currently holds the Chair of Living in the light of planetary limits at the Institut d'études avancées de Nantes, in partnership with ENSA, AURAN and SCE-KERAN.

He is co-author with Emmanuel Bonnet and Alexandre Monnin of the book Héritage et Fermeture, published by Divergences.
Anne-Marie Filaire is a photographer, the author of radio plays broadcast on France Culture and a lecturer at the Paris Institute of Political Studies. Her work takes the form of a poetic exploration of man and his environment, focusing on the landscape and the intimate concerns of people confronted with geopolitical upheaval. Terres, sols profonds du Grand Paris was published in 2020 by La Découverte, and bears witness to the transformation of a city by extractivism.
