This is a special edition of the ReD podcast live from Paris, France, where we hosted a discussion with British photographer Maisie Cousins, and Pernod Ricard’s head of foresight, Daphnée Hor, at the beautiful Lafayette Anticipations, a gallery space in the heart of Paris.
Are We Afraid Of The Body? was the topic of conversation, a question that sits right at the heart of our ongoing content series all about our changing relationship to flesh.
Hosted by ReD’s Sandra Cariglio, they discuss the changing ways bodies are considered and represented in our age of sanitised, Instagram-ready aesthetics, the growing fascination with perishability, waste and decomposition, and finally, ask whether we’re entering a germ renaissance.
