Exo#1 Re-place is the first exhibition presented in the space located at 10ter rue Bisson, in Paris.

Re-place is about alternative layout.

Displayed without any consideration of specific functionality, the objects and images presented here seem to have been created on different scales with independent stories.
Their encounter interrupts the narrative and raises the question of the object's definition in terms of layout, place, and positioning.
The apparent dysfunctionality defers to the space heights which makes us regard each object in its own distance and according to its own user manual. In the formal presentation and the display of its process and content, each form suggests its own continuity and independence.
Suggesting that each object belongs to a group with the same DNA, and that inside this global presentation, each object retains its individual assembly and exhibiting entity.
