The POOL project gave Pierre-Lou the chance to try his hand at filming and recording sounds in the Finnish forest. You can watch the short film on the YouTube channel of the Faculty of Science at the University of Turku.

From 2026, Pierre-Lou will be exploring the grasslands of the nearshore zones and floodplains of the Pays de la Loire region.

From September 12 to 14, Pierre-Lou presented his exhibition POOL at the Photo Terre Nature Festival in Contrexéville. It was a wonderful opportunity for meaningful encounters and discussions about boreal wetlands, nature photography, and the connections between art and science. It was also the chance to discover the work of other photographers — diverse worlds, sensitive approaches, and a shared desire to celebrate both the beauty and fragility of the living world. A big tha

The 2026 calendars and a new series of POOL cards are now available online! Printed just a short drive from my home, in Meuse, by a small family-run print shop. This edition highlights the vernal pools of Finland discovered through the POOL project. And this year, a little novelty: the calendar is bilingual, French–Finnish.
