Airports are one of the most revealing places in our world. Gates for trips and dreams, totally artificial organized environments, these places where we just go through offer a sort of microcosm, a magnifying lens for some of the aspects of our world: globalization, mobility, flow, business trade, surveillance… With works from the digital arts, installations, sound, videos and photography, La Panacée will be filled with visual and acoustic signals, transforming the place into airport environment: destination boards, security gates, landing strips… while questioning our world through original grids.
