Trilogie de cendres (“Trilogy of ashes”) is an exhibition conceived in three stages based on the collection of the FRAC Pays de la Loire.
The exhibition brings together 63 artists, 89 works including 74 from the Frac collection and 10 guest artists. It offers a multi-entry reflection on what makes home through the notions of identity, language and memory relating to individuals as well as to collective dynamics. Conceived by Marion Duquerroy and Thomas Fort, and accompanied by students from the History of Art degree at the UCO of Angers, it is supplemented by a program of encounters and performances.
This third and last part thinks about the form of the disintegration, the transformation or even the sublimation of identities (fluidity, creolization, otherness). Through a landscape of signs tending towards abstraction (Lucy Skaer, Thea Djordjadze or Melike Kara), the images are diluted and the bodies rest (Bernard Frize, Camille Picquot or Chris Shaw). If something elusive remains, hollow, languages and memories continue to crackle.
