Photograph of the salt and water sculpture, 300 cm diameter, Bolivia - Elina is an imaginary planet created from salt bricks using the traditional techniques of the Ayamara Indians, a people of Bolivia, north of the Great Salt Desert. Guillaume Barth spent 3 months there to complete his project, which unfolded into an ephemeral sculpture (Elina).

There’s only one water. And this water is everywhere. It sees all, it hears all, it knows all.
L’avenir de l’eau – Petit précis de mondialisation II, Érik Orsenna
Celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2025, this year’s Biennale d’Issy will focus on the theme L’eau intranquille.
A symbol of life, a moving force, a mirror of our societies, water is a poetic and political field of exploration.
