As an echo to the Vieilles coques & jeunes récifs exhibition, Jimmy Beauquesne*, Nygel Panasco** and Yoann Kavege*** are invited to present their work and their unique way of telling stories.
We’ll be bringing together the visual arts, comics and science fiction to explore mutations and transformations of bodies and landscapes.
