A transparent wall, and no one behind it. Marlen Haushofer's novel,, written in 1963, cuts a woman off from the world with an invisible barrier, and Sarah Jérôme has left it behind.

The third recipient of the Bullukian-Fontevraud residency, she spent the end of 2025 at the abbey and brought back new oil paintings on tracing paper, exploring themes of isolation and newfound inner freedom. They speak of our confinements, those we endure and those we bear.
