Photography / Installation. 2018 - ongoing Demarcation area, postcards (13x19cm)

Paradis Retrouvé is a reflection on the immanent desire of man to want to control and dominate his natural environment. The installation offers postcards of trees prohibited to the public in urban spaces.

As nature has become less and less present in cities, protection mechanisms are being set up, further impoverishing our contact with it. These paradoxical moments reflect our desire to keep a memory, an image of paradise lost, amplified by the postcard format. The presence of physical distancing measures in the exhibition space is an abyss of the situation, inviting the public to (re) question the limits of their actions and their relationship to the world.

Paradis Retrouvé thus refers to our aspiration to reach the famous paradise.
