Storytelling

Driven by a desire to understand and address current and future societal challenges, we work beyond the illustrative role of audio-visual production.

We conduct immersive fieldwork and foster collaborations with people and organisations to highlight transformative stories that spark change.

An intercultural approach is essential in meeting the other, and we embody it first among ourselves. From different backgrounds, we bonded together through shared values ​​and in a cultural and linguistic diversity, incorporating English, French, Italian, and Dutch. We put this strength at the service of our collaborations.

Our team combines knowledge and skills from five pillars that guide the collaborative projects we lead.

Intersectionality

We acknowledge and address the entanglement of social, environmental, ecological, economic, health, cultural, and political issues.

Decolonisation

The theoretical and methodological underpinnings of a project are informed prominently by the Indigenous peoples concerned. We include their ways of thinking, being, and relating alongside current scientific knowledge, focusing on their goals and visions.

Multimodality

We integrate diverse forms of data production such as photography, videography, soundscapes, and written narratives to provide a comprehensive understanding of complex issues.

Investigative Aesthetics

We utilize visual and artistic methods to explore and reveal hidden dynamics within social and ecological contexts, making invisible challenges visible through engaging media.

Radical Optimism

We focus on solutions and hope, emphasising positive narratives that inspire collective action and envision sustainable futures.
