LUZ FANDINO
I've always been an artist experimenting with different ways of creating. I've been interested in painting and sculpture, as well as digital work. I worked at the Smithsonian Institute in the field of iconographic research. During this period, I studied fine arts and did post-graduate studies in French philosophy. I have exhibited my work in Latin America, the United States and Europe. In my practice, I like to have no clear structure or direction when I start to develop a series of works. From there, I begin to give form and content to the project. Currently, I'm continuing to research philosophy and art, in particular the work of Merlau-Ponty. I'm fascinated by the fact that things can't be understood from a totally objective point of view.
LIWEI XU
Born in 1988 in Shanghai, Liwei Xu is an artist and art history researcher. She came to France in 2011 to study, and now creates around the ephemeral and migratory experiences of her life and those of the young people around her. In 2022, she defended a thesis entitled Le paysage suspendu et les traits maladroits-La recherche du langage du collectif de peintres amateurs et anonymes Wuming à travers leur peinture d'après nature (1964-1986). After this thesis, she helped the Tate Modern Museum acquire works by the Wuming collective in 2023 and translated her thesis into English.
L IN B ZIN
Alain Bazin was born on February 29, 1956 in the 9th arrondissement of Paris. He lives and works in Gironde. Self-taught in picto-graphic practice until the age of 30, he later trained in Plastic Arts after specialized studies in human sciences and advertising design, in order to better understand his artistic practice in the history of contemporary art. In 1976, together with a number of friends in the plastic arts, he founded the "Artistes Inconnus" association, which questions the status of the artist by enabling members to exhibit their original work in well-known and sometimes unusual locations (cinemas, refectories, etc.).

HELOISE BONIN
Born in 1979, Héloïse Bonin lives and works in the Limousin region of France.
Her pictorial work and her desire to pursue an artistic path are the result of a long and intense personal journey: a form of resilience, following the trauma left by an accident in 1999, but also the desire to devote herself to raising her children. Héloïse works in series, inspired by her personal and professional life: Interiors, Portraits, Remixes, Corolles, Exiles...
HELENE TRIBOULET
"Hélène Triboulet's Affreusement Confidentiel studio is nestled in a courtyard in Montreuil-sur-mer. It's in the heart of this retreat that her work finds its origins, its meaning and its resources. Each of her creations affirms, with the help of gestures and broken techniques, the force that runs through the universe to tell us the beauty of the world. The wonder of each new day is at hand."
OPENING FRIDAY JULY 7TH
7PM - 9PM

From the 7th of july 2023 to mid September 10 artists, from different corners of the world, shared their interpretation and inspiration of the seeders.
The exhibition will feature a dozen artists, across all media and expressions, whose work literally or conceptually engages the act of sowing/seeding/planting - whether in an art object or in the experience of planting concepts, thoughts, seeds, trees, lives or actions.
An infinity of possible practices and gestures generating the life of beings or things, starting from a simple seed - expressed through formal, plastic, visual, sound, tactile or intangible performative experiments.
For the artist, it is a question of passing from the invisible to the visible, of constructing singularities, identities, stories. In the art of artificial intelligence (AI), the seed is a series of numbers that guide the AI to generate an image.
