MINA MOND - "La Haute Chasse" (The High Hunt)
20 December 2024 to 25 October 2025
Accustomed to epic scenes with strong symbolism, Mina Mond tackles fantastical hunts in this exhibition.
Interpreted from different angles, Mina Mond inscribes today's world into legend.
Folklore, with its universal grammar, allows her to address current themes while preserving both mystery and discovery in the form of an initiatory journey for the viewer.
Her narrative, strongly influenced by illuminations, plays with light and shadow.
Creating a liminal world, teeming with dreams and reality, Mina Mond invites us on a journey of the eye and the mind.

20 December 2023 to 25 October 2024
TIDRU's unique ceramic characters appear wise and introspective, but the drawings covering them reveal what lies inside or behind the walls of the body and appearance.
["One can imagine a light that projects the individual's story from the inside out, with the designs being, in a way, the resulting play of shadows."]
Terracotta/engobe/mixed media sculptures and drawing (watercolour, coloured pencils, collage, etc.)
MAGDALENA LAMRI - "Where Ghosts Dance"
15 December 2022 to 31 October 202
This ghost story could begin at the dawn of night, at the exact moment when a gap between days is created.
Magdalena Lamri's drawings, created using charcoal, black chalk and graphite, intertwine with the story and transport the viewer to places where the invisible becomes perceptible, where anything is possible...
In his work, reality as we know it persists despite everything. But the architecture is destroyed, frozen in time, depopulated. Absence, to better describe the precariousness and fragility of our human condition. All that remains are the sensitive traces of a passage, the residues of what once was, revealed by the play of light and shadow.
Charcoal, black chalk and graphite drawings
JOËL GANGLOFF - "The Memory of Landscape"
5 June 2022 to 25 October 2022
Joël Gangloff paints nature like a landscape artist of scrubland, where the tangle of plants becomes an improbable reality.
Acrylics on canvasEMMANUEL BOUR - "Human Natures"
15 December 2021 to 27 May 2022
Emmanuel Bour sculpts human faces, without models, from his visual and emotional memory. Their memory is within him and emerges sooner or later under the gouge.
He speaks of our armour, our magical amulets, invented to protect us from the violence of the world and make us feel a little less helpless in the face of the absurdity of the city.
Direct carving wood sculptures
THOMAS MONIN - "Conversation[s]"
April 2021- April 2022
Two ghosts have taken up residence in the ruins of the Abbey. An owl and a giant wolf converse during the day and night. Effraie and Olympia freely take possession of the architectural remains left behind by the tribulations of history. The two monumental and mysterious silhouettes, phosphorescent at nightfall, attempt to create a symbolic and poetic device. Conversation[s] attempts an animal art, which might—perhaps—help us to finally accept our impermanence, our animality...
Monumental sculptures made of white metal rods coated with phosphorescent silicone.
LARA BLANCHARD - "Ad Lucem"
April - November 2021
Lara Blanchard questions what she calls "the universal magic". Through her embroidered engravings and her project of
sculptures, jewellery and masks, she explores humanity in its most primitive form.
[‘With Ad Lucem, I am returning to oral traditions, from before books, beyond writing. It is a new story within History that I have been telling myself since “my” night of Time...’]
Installation of finely crafted and embroidered sculptures, masks and adornments (mixed media: clay, felting, natural materials)
Embroidered prints (mixed media)
