Présentation

Brigitte Lustenberger puts on display and stages complex installations, sorts of cabinets of curiosities that mix objects, images projected, hung on walls... to better evoke the ephemerality of things fascinating her. The beauty of withered flowers, the delicacy of an insect wing, gentle lights on a world that fades, almost already forgotten.
