Discover the works of Chloé Ferrer, Armand Louet, Mathilde Noir, and Jérôme Wieder, young artists based in the region whose works bring local history, heritage, care, and echoes of the world into dialogue.

Dear cave,
You rumble as you read these sentences whose only purpose is to inform you. We will (re)come, there will be four of us, each equipped with words, thoughts, forms. In the hollow of your throat, a return home, to origins. Tending the openings, filing down the edges, awakening the memory of ancient worlds. There will be four of us, hands laden with fragments to bury in the hollow, the depths of your body. A rugged surgery, suturing the walls to fill the breaches that stories form. Closing in order to better open, settling on porous surfaces, leaving a trace. We will not stop here. We will be four bodies, modified, healed into mystical, monstrous creatures, we will make of you a patient who, at the end of all this, finally heals. In this crevasse, four lost bodies, a chasm that devours them, the sound of the echo from outside, to hatch the memories of pearled stories. We will be five bodies, wounded, sewn, sticky, assembled to form but a single refuge.

Chloé, Armand, Mathilde, Jérôme
