“From a form to its shadow, from a shadow to its shadow, July Bessard summons the same strange world where roamed ancient signs, animal shadows and shapes beyond hybrids. You think you can make them out but they unroll like a story, they remain open like songs and fables and they tell us that that world is begetting a new world, that it is going towards new childhoods and that we have to be ready for this new adventure, keeping us in the making.”
