Olivier Remaud’s work invites us to look beyond surface appearances and reconsider our relationship with nature, particularly in polar environments. Through evocative imagery, he describes a world where icebergs and glaciers are no longer just inanimate objects but vital, living entities that are deeply interconnected with human existence. Remaud emphasizes the importance of acknowledging and respecting the often-overlooked lives of non-human entities, highlighting how everything in the environment, from the creaking of ice to the voices of indigenous peoples, is intertwined and interdependent.
His book, a tribute to unexpected lives and the art of coexisting with nature, challenges us to reflect on how we interact with and affect the ecosystems around us, urging a more thoughtful, respectful relationship with the natural world.
