Charbons, de Killoffer
Deuxième livre "d'images" de Killoffer.

Compilation de deux expositions : "Mauvais plis" à la galerie Anne Barrault et "Charbons" au musée de l'abbaye Sainte-Croix aux Sables d'Olonne, Charbons propose un enfoncement dans l'univers à la fois sombre et scintillant, céleste et souterrain de cet artiste qui cherche le ciel en creusant.

À charge pour le spectateur "d'inventer" un trésor...
