Brasilia Freeze Frame of a Future Past Vincent's work on the city of Brasilia comes from a mixture of fascination and nostalgia for the stories and representations of the Future. Indeed, the city and capital of Brazil designed by Oscar Niemeyer, and which was built in 4 years in the middle of a desert, embodies the vision of the future of in the 1960s. Space Project Produced over a period of a decade from 2007-2017, Fournier documents the past and future of space exploration. The photos are a deliberate mix of historical and documentarian vision of space adventure with scenes staged by cinema, and Fournier's childhood memories as well as a journey into our future.
