'Atlantis' is an eclectic collection of photographic fiction about the legend of Atlantis by Oriane Thomasson. As recounted by Plato, Atlantis describes a magnificent island blessed with abundant natural resources. Its inhabitants, descendants of Poseidon, lived in a society organised in harmony with nature. Over time, their ambition drove them to expand their empire and exploit new resources, provoking the wrath of Zeus. As punishment, he unleashed a devastating cataclysm that submerged the island beneath the waves. Together with an original science fiction short story titled ‘The Meteors’, Atlantis traces a before-and-after, the allure of a ‘lost paradise’ and the marks of its collapse, revealing how evidence and invention together shape the writing of history.
