Posto 5 : Le Dernier Souffle, une archive photographique de la Mata Atlântica

En 2025, l'agence Posto 5 a achevé la phase préparatoire de son projet documentaire au long cours : Le Dernier Souffle. Ce reportage photographique, qui se déploie entre la France et le Brésil, marque l'engagement de notre agence dans une mission d'archives visuelles sur quatre ans. Dès la fin de l'année 2026, Posto 5 initiera le premier volet de cette immersion systématique au cœur de la forêt atlantique. Face à l'érosion critique du biome — dont moins de 7 % du couvert originel subsiste — notre équipe adopte une méthodologie rigoureuse de terrain. Par une documentation factuelle et une esthétique journalistique exigeante, nous nous donnons pour objectif de fixer la mémoire de cette forêt primaire avant sa disparition définitive. Cette épopée photographique constitue un fonds documentaire structuré, interrogeant les interactions entre les activités anthropiques et les derniers bastions de biodiversité du littoral brésilien.

Posto 5: The Last Breath, a photographic archive of the Mata Atlântica

In 2025, the agency Posto 5 completed the preparatory phase of its long-term documentary project: The Last Breath. This photographic reportage, spanning France and Brazil, marks our agency's commitment to a four-year visual archive mission. Starting in late 2026, Posto 5 will launch the first chapter of this systematic immersion into the heart of the Atlantic Forest. Faced with the critical erosion of the biome—of which less than 7% of the original cover remains—our team employs a rigorous field methodology. Through factual documentation and exacting journalistic aesthetics, we aim to preserve the memory of this primary forest before its final disappearance. This photographic odyssey serves as a structured documentary resource, examining the interactions between anthropogenic activities and the remaining biodiversity strongholds along the Brazilian coast.

A partir do final de 2026, a Posto 5 iniciará a primeira etapa desta imersão sistemática no coração da Mata Atlântica. Diante da erosão crítica do bioma — do qual resta menos de 7% da cobertura original — nossa equipe adota uma metodologia rigorosa de campo. Por meio de documentação factual e estética jornalística rigorosa, nosso objetivo é fixar a memória desta floresta primária antes de seu desaparecimento definitivo. Esta epopeia fotográfica constitui um acervo documental estruturado, interrogando as interações entre as atividades antrópicas e os últimos redutos de biodiversidade do litoral brasileiro.
