The exhibition “Détournements Naturels” brings together international artists renowned for the evocation of nature in their creations and young French artists. Using stone, feather, paper or other elements diverted from their usual use, these artists evoke nature to provoke emotion, humor or discomfort. The aim of this exhibition is to make us aware of the extent to which humans are connected to nature.
