Mission: Experiencing the confinement
The vast majority of the European continent is undergoing extraordinary

confinement natures the seeds of human resilience. Creativity, empathy, love,
reflection, sense of humor and the inspiration of natur e: proven principles that boost
our immune response, a speedy recovery, and may lead us to a better world “after”.
This venture is also designed to support photographers by offering them hig h
visibility (exhibition, publication, traveling exhibition, etc.). Also, a total fund of 30
000€ will be shared between the selected photographers and the winner of the “Coup de
