The photographer and video artist Ludivine Zambon has begun her residency at the Centre Hospitalier Alpes Léman as part of the medical-visual arts initiative Culture and Health in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. Her project, called “Terrain d’attaches” (Grounds for Attachment), will give both patients and health professionals the chance to express themselves in video and sound interviews. They will talk about lived experience in relation to the other and the attachments that are created when the patient and the health-care professional interact over time.

Three health facilities (CHAL in Findrol, Hôpital Départemental Dufresne Sommeiller in La Tour, and the Hôpital Départemental of Reignier) are scheduled to host the artist. A show featuring the results of her work is slated for June 2022.

This project enjoys the generous support of Agence Régionale de Santé; the Direction Régionale des Affaires Culturelles (DRAC), Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes; and the Région Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes.
