Adventurers and seasoned travelers, the challenge of a lifetime awaits you. Step by step, enter the unfathomable forest of Eva Jospin, Françoise Pétrovitch and David Nash. Be careful! Strange animals and magical creatures await you there. Your quest takes you to the edge of a city with mysterious architecture, created by Tadashi Kawamata and Agnès Varda. Above all, don't make any noise: you could disturb “The Hybridus Family”, these ancestral beings, half-human, half-plant, taken from a very distant past where humanity and nature lived in symbiosis. As you move forward, you feel mischievous eyes watching you: danger awaits you. Where are you taking refuge? Under the shade of a makeshift cabin surrounded by electrifyingly colored palm trees, or in the cabinet of curiosities of an explorer from another time? If you make it this far, congratulations: you are approaching the grand finale of your journey into the unknown. In front of you, the moving, fluorescent light of an installation by Elias Crespin reveals a point of passage to another dimension, even more beautiful. Is this an end, or the beginning of new fantastic adventures?

Did you know?

French cinema legend Agnès Varda was also a recognized visual artist! She left behind sculptures with curved shapes following the shape of the wind, or dreamlike installations reminiscent of movie sets, such as a beach tent lit by golden light or the hull of an ancient ship.
