This collection of photographs was made following an assignment commissioned to eight photographers from eight different neighbourhoods in Geneva including Saint-Jean, Charmilles by Elisa Larvego, Servette, Petit-Saconnex by Emmanuelle Bayart, Cité, Eaux-Vives by Magali Douados, Pâquis, Sécheron by Patrick Lopreno, Acacias by Aurélien Bergot, Plainpalais, Jonction by Nicolas Schofer, Grottes, Saint-Gervais by Julien Gregorio, Champel by Carole Parodi. Their photographs were initially exhibited on billboards for the “vis-à-vis” event. The editorial process resulted in a book on its own, in which various gazes “derive” within their own variations of urban space and is follow by the essay dérives urbaines by Ariane Pollet and herbier démocratique by Luca Pattaroni.
