1- Awena COZANNET
Oscillating between sculpture, drawing, scenography and installation, Awena Cozannet anchors her work into the human body and on the human being as well as on their temporality. She uses the material as a language and the body as a material. Some of her sculptures have actually been carried by herself or by others, for the time of a photography, or for a public performance. This approach has brought her to develop collaborative artistic practices in Bangladesh, in Burma or in Pakistan (...) which have deeply influenced her work. Besides, she has substantially broadened her skills through the various projects, the residences and the exhibitions in which she has been invoved or that she has been organizing in France and abroad.

3- Exhibition Wu Jun
"It took me nearly half a year to be treated in hospital, lying on the bed. There are many kinds of tube in my body and I could not move… My wounds could not be cicatrized and I have to suffer the pain…. I can't eat nor drink, and only can be survived depending on the nutrient fluid… No one can know what happen tomorrow. I have no confidence, I must banish self-pride and shame feeling to be only a thing that was manipulated by others.
"I want to survive" this belief helps me to come back from the death, just like a miracle. The happiness of re-obtaining the life changed my attitude to life. "
