Vincent Porcher
Humans call the ears the leaves, that's how they feel that trees know music but the green language of trees is a much older slang. Who knows what they say when they talk about humans.
Jacques Prévert, Histoires, 1946.
Born in the south of France in the early '90s, Vincent started visiting tropical forests and people living in them at 19 years old. Deeply interested in intertwined links that human societies have established with their environments, he uses photography and ethnobotany to explore them.
He holds an MSc in Tropical Botany and Ethnoecology (2017) from the University of Montpellier (France) and an engineer title from the Federal University of Curitiba (Brazil). He is now PhD candidate at the Autonomous University of Barcelona (Spain), mainly working on children's biocultural interactions in Madagascar.
