history of nature. Taking an encyclopedic approach, artist Pauline Julier explores several nature stories appealing to the arts and
sciences to create this vast narrative. The 504-page edition includes a rich iconography, original texts as well as interviews with Philippe Descola and Bruno Latour.
Published following the eponymous exhibition at Ferme Asile, Sion, from May 20 to July 9, 2017, and at Centre culturel suisse, Paris, from September 9 to December 17, 2017.
