Point Cardinal V
(Cardinal Point V)

With and by students from art schools in the Grand Est region and their photography professors

Along the Rhine canal (opposite MISE) and on the forecourt Adrien Zeller (in front of the train station), Mulhouse
June 5 - July 5 
24h/24
Guided tour on friday June 5 at 4p.m.

Presented as a display along the canal banks and on the train station forecourt, the exhibition features around 80 posters of students' photographs created as part of courses taught by Constance Nouvel, Estefanía Peñafiel-Loaiza and Delphine Gatinois (ÉSAL Metz and Épinal), Andrea Keen (ENSAD Nancy), and Laurent Montaron (ESAD Reims), and Isabelle Le Minh and Anne Immelé (HEAR Strasbourg-Mulhouse). During the 2025–2026 academic year, the students worked on the theme of the BPM 2026, Sedimentation(s). The result is a diverse range of works that demonstrate the vitality of emerging artistic creation.

As part of a collaboration between HEAR, the French Institute of Cambodia, and Studio Images in Phnom Penh—the only higher education institution exclusively dedicated to teaching photography in all of Southeast Asia—Cambodian students were also invited to reflect on the festival’s theme. Six of them are participating in the Point Cardinal V exhibition alongside students from art schools in the Grand Est region.

The installation on the forecourt was made possible thanks to sponsorship from JCDecaux.
