Summary:
The Emosson region in the Swiss canton of Valais boasts a breathtaking Alpine landscape punctuated by a series of monumental feats in hydroelectric engineering, which include three dams and a power plant hidden in a cavern 600 meters below ground. In "Hydroelectric sublime", the photographers Beatrice Gorelli (born 1996) and Keiichi Kitayama (born 1987) set out to capture the area’s awe-inspiring terrain, and find themselves on a three-year odyssey uncovering the intricate bond between humans, energy and water. Across mountains, seasons and generations, the book peels back the layers of a landscape that exemplifies the coming together of nature and the man-made so sublimely or severely, depending on one’s point of view.
