For its 2026 summer season, the Fondation François Schneider is offering carte blanche to artist Nicolas Floc'h, a major figure on the contemporary scene. His work, at the confluence of scientific investigation and visual creation, redefines our perception of the living world by revealing the invisible. The Hydroscape exhibition lifts the veil on Nicolas Floc'h's long-term work. Far from mere documentation, he sees water as a medium in its own right, with its own architecture, forests, meadows and chromatic nuances revealing the health of oceans and rivers. In a multi-disciplinary journey, photography dialogues with sculpture, installation and video, around three axes: Productive landscapes, Productive structures and The color of water. Hydroscape transforms the way we look at these invisible habitats. Water is no longer a simple mirror, but an inhabited topography where every structure and every nuance of color becomes a tool for reading an ecosystem in the throes of change.
