With Le contrat naturel, Galerie Greta Meert presents a group exhibition that activates Michel Serres’ eponymous essay (1990) as a framework for thought rather than illustrating it. The show engages Serres’ fundamental rethinking of humankind’s relationship to its environment, exploring both the breadth and limits of his philosophy. Photography, as method and lens, records without explaining, making visible the traces of human intervention, nature as witness, and urbanisation as layered historical process. It reveals the structural consequences of a social contract blind to the non-human, while responsibility emerges as relational and dispersed. The exhibition invites viewers into an open, reflective negotiation of care, reciprocity, and the conditions for a shared future.
