Between January and March, photojournalist Guillaume Herbaut worked with men and women, in Givors and Valence, on the theme of the border in a context of health crisis. The groups observed, in the two cities, the “new” limits, the “new” living spaces, of everyday life. A questioning of what the health situation has upset or brought up to date (intimate, political, geographic borders).
Fourteen singular series have been produced and staged by teams from the CPA, Stimultania and Guillaume Herbaut. They are presented alongside the author's personal exhibition entitled “Orages”.
