Meteor Ghosts by Florian Luthi at Centre De La Photographie Genève

The project Meteor Ghosts by Geneva-based photographer Florian Luthi is inspired by the wave of UFO sightings that swept across France in 1954, particularly along the French-Swiss border.

Overview

The press reported strange lights, apparitions and mysterious encounters, often reduced to fear and speculation. Taking one of these stories as his starting point, Florian Luthi revisits the landscapes of his childhood – misty forests, deserted villages and the Jura mountains – and composes a photographic narrative where truth wavers and legends persist.
