Hydroelectric Sublime

Edited by Beatrice Gorelli, Keiichi Kitayama. Text by Nicolas Nova, Takako Ito. Photographs by Beatrice Gorelli, Keiichi Kitayama.

Hydroelectric Sublime

A beautiful photographic investigation of the interrelationships between water, energy and community

The Emosson region in the Swiss canton of Valais boasts a breathtaking Alpine landscape punctuated by a series of monumental feats in hydroelectric engineering, which include three dams and a power plant hidden in a cavern 600 meters below ground. In Hydroelectric Sublime, the photographers Beatrice Gorelli (born 1996) and Keiichi Kitayama (born 1987) set out to capture the area’s awe-inspiring terrain, and find themselves on a three-year odyssey uncovering the intricate bond between humans, energy and water. Across mountains, seasons and generations, the book peels back the layers of a landscape that exemplifies the coming together of nature and the man-made so sublimely or severely, depending on one’s point of view.
Hydroelectric Sublime weaves together photographs, essays and interviews that pay tribute to a grand manifestation of modern civilization, while also delving into the history of the valley region and sharing personal testimonies of those whose lives depend on this source of power. As photographers, Gorelli and Kitayama take us on a journey through enveloping vistas of sublime nature to the industrial interiors of the power plant via the dark tunnels of the Emosson dam complex. As editors, they present an artful prism of visual, historical, cultural, environmental and personal perspectives on a highly charged symbol of the modern world.
