re-thinking visual, the studio of photographers Laetitia Boulud and Alex de Jong presents the installation longing for sight at Mapping Festival in Geneva from 6 16 May, 2010. The installation consists of a dark space filled with voices, and a dome where visitors are immersed in a visual/aural landscape that is projected as if in a planetarium. That structure, entered after a plunge in total darkness reveals a confined, secret space, flooded with reflected light. Boulud and De Jong are photographers by training and by instinct, but their process has led them to abandoning the visual towards touch and towards sound. To them, seeing becomes sensing by means of all the senses.
