SUPERNOVA by Caroline Monnet

The Supernova exhibition is an explosion of colors generating forms that suggest the fragmentation of the territory over generations. Each of the silkscreens is named after a letter of the Greek alphabet, reminding us that human evolution acts according to a series of events that hide succinct phenomena that we cannot control. It is an invitation to reflect on the traces we leave on our environment and the repercussions they can have in the long term.
