Phèdre Barbas (GR/FR)

My work explores the role of aesthetics as signifiers, shaping collective imaginaries, especially in urban environments, understood through their historic, socio-political and philosophical scopes. 

It is deeply anchored in both written, visual and material storytelling, and has developed in the recent years to form a constant dialogue between theoretical analysis and instinctive materialisation, assembling and disassembling the existing to produce poetic installations, spaces and objects.
