Table de divination, 2026

image cloth, shell, rose of Jericho, various objects 140 x 80 cm

A banquet table is covered with a cloth onto which heterogeneous archives accumulate — blending historical, popular and intimate references. On this surface, symbolic objects are arranged: rose of Jericho, shell, plastic lemon, French coins (1931–1945), benzoin, cinnamon, 777 tea. The objects are not props — their encounter produces a tension with the images ; they activate the work and evolve according to the exhibition space.

This evolving altar becomes a mediating device between the visible and the invisible, between institutionalised knowledge and belief.

By re-enacting the space of sharing and divinatory consultation, the work is also the site of culinary performances centred around ritual bread shared with the audience, making the table a space of transmission in action.
