Exhibition

from 18 Oct 2023 to 07 Jan 2024

An immersive moment with writer and dancer Léa Rivière around her first book, "L'Odeur des pierres mouillées".

We'll be talking about municipal love, geological metonymy, tremors, chemical rumours and infiltration.

We'll tell each other things, and maybe dance a little.
Léa Rivière is a dancer.

L'odeur des pierres mouillées, her first book, was published in July 2023 by Éditions du Commun.
