She was known for her miles of cycling happiness along the Isère, lost in the vegetation with birdsong in stereo. Now, the greenway of the Haute Tarentaise adds another string to its bow. This summer, the 24-kilometre cycle route that connects See à Villaroger transforms into an open-air art gallery with the photographic exhibition «Reflets du vivant.».
Around a bend, between rivers and Alpine landscapes, the walker suddenly comes across an open-air collective fresco.

Clichés, from’an open call for photographers Professionals and amateurs alike highlight the diverse ways of living in, practising, and experiencing the mountains.
Landscapes, portraits and scenes of life make up an accessible and free exhibition, which invites you to discover a Haute Tarentaise contemporary and shared.
A sensitive perspective, far from the postcard.
More than a classic photography competition, the project led by the Community of Communes of Haute Tarentaise advocates for an almost intimate approach to the territory.
Taken in one of the community's eight communes, the images aim less to produce a postcard cliché than to tell of an experience, a feeling, a way of experiencing the mountains and sharing them. In short, what connects humans and their environment.
An off-site culture, as close as possible to the living.
By choosing the greenway as a support, the organisers are banking on accessible culture, integrated into the daily lives of cyclists, walkers and hikers.
The works dialogue directly with the photographed locations and will remain visible throughout the summer, during the peak tourist season – a great showcase for the selected photographers.
The appointment is set for the 4th of July for the opening, in the presence of the artists.
