The body as archive

Fragments of bodies and suspended gestures reveal the traces of collective experience within the individual form.

From the artist's dossier

A heart, a leg, four hands, two feet, a profile: the body appears in pieces, held or suspended by the structures around it. In Paris the same concern turns toward the maternal body and the five states of Féminin.
