This work on paper by Patrick Piccinelli evokes Western civilization through its geometric and structured composition. But its title "Port De Marseille"; suggests an "elsewhere" because the African continent is not far away. Marseille is a French city but you can smell the scent of Africa everywhere in the city.

This duality interests Piccinelli who translates this tension in his search for a rigorous minimalism diverted from its sobriety by random traces and splashes."The major contemporary issues related to exile; decolonial questions and identities are screened in this vast program called "Here comes Africa" imagined in the imposing artistic complex of the Friche Belle de Mai located in the northern districts from Marseille.
