Il était une ville
Sara de.Gouy

13 February – 30 June 2025

 

For this new exhibition-workshop, Sara de.Gouy—space designer, architect, and visual artist (born in 1983, based in Lyon)—invites visitors to imagine and experiment with a more joyful, poetic, and sustainable city, one designed with children in mind.

Conceived as a large-scale model, the installation plays with different scales—the city's and that of its young visitors—while also questioning the role of living beings and natural elements in urban spaces. Developed in collaboration with two second-grade classes from a Parisian elementary school, the project invites both children and adults to dream together.
