Julie Knaebel’s practice unfolds through various mediums, including publishing, drawing, and installation. Her latest research focuses on the links between contemporary art and the environment. Through her approach to paper and writing, she questions our relationships with living beings, our modes of perception, and our ways of making art. She is interested in natural phenomena, the minute, the ephemeral, and disappearance.

Julie Knaebel presents an exhibition of her works in the library’s lobby as part of the “Rendez-vous décalés,” held in the libraries of Thouaré-sur-Loire, Mauves-sur-Loire, and Sainte-Luce-sur-Loire, with this year’s theme being paper.

Simultaneously, supported by the Frac, the artist is conducting workshops in several elementary school classes in Thouaré-sur-Loire, offering hands-on practice and an introduction to contemporary art.
