28 April – 5 July

Paysage impossible

Artist Jessica Decorvet investigates the landscape as an unstable concept where seeing implicates participation and representation transforms the world. The exhibition brings together drawings, textiles, ceramics and living plants to stage tensions between intense, almost vital wonder and cultural framing that distances the living.
Playing with scale from miniature objects to a monumental curtain, Decorvet unsettles assumptions: textiles become stained glass while ceramics verge on reliquary. The works evoke and question how perception and materiality shape our relation to place.

Opening: Tuesday 28 April, 18:00

Three artists—Adriana Passini, Frédérique Haessig and Érica Mugny—present a collective exhibition that traces a dialogue between poetry and the natural world. Passini’s delicate engravings, Haessig’s carved stone sculptures and Mugny’s mixed-media paintings explore gesture, texture and material memory. The show foregrounds traditional print and sculptural techniques alongside painterly surfaces, and references several illustrated volumes produced in collaboration with the artists, offering a thoughtful encounter with form and narrative.

Seven emerging designers transform parking bays into site-specific installations that imagine alternative uses for reclaimed urban space. Combining design, planting and crafted structures, the works explore collective wellbeing, ecological practice and public appropriation of infrastructure. Installations range from modular seating and planted interventions to sculptural landscapes that reframe parking as communal terrain. The project foregrounds collaboration between landscape and design, inviting reflection on everyday spatial commons and small-scale ecological strategies.

Le Palais des Tressaillements brings together a group of contemporary artists who examine the legacy and circulation of images.
