Too many little boys running around the apartment upstairs at 7 a.m., too many ladies with phone plans trying to sell us one, too much noise, too much jostling.
Ah, how peaceful life must be deep in the woods, far from the tumult of the city jungle, without noise.
We planned our escape.
Really noiseless?
It shouldn't be complicated, just take the train and walk a few kilometers from the station.
On the train, the guy in front of us had headphones on and the music blasting.
At the foot of the large oak tree, where we had planned to catch our breath, in the heart of the national forest, we heard the bellowing of the exasperated jogger deep in the woods, the howls of the mountain biker, the growling of the one-eyed dog, the chirping of the green classes on the loose.
Not to mention the roaring of the elves, the hooting of the deities, the continual disputes of the gods and other spirits.
We quickly returned home, to dream of a forest where we would finally have peace.
It seems that the jungle of state forests has nothing to envy of that of cities.

In the Jungle of the State Forests is a chronicle in 7 tableaux on the impossibility today of finding a quiet place.
• Outdoors: choose locations where people take a walk and/or where there is a lot of foot traffic: in the centre of the town, near a school, in a public garden or along a walking trail... And if possible, on flat ground!
• Indoors: reception hall, office, waiting room, dining room, meeting room - choose the best-lit space.
CAUTION: If the space where you are displaying the exhibition is slightly damp, we recommend purchasing eight simple frames of the same size (50 x 70 cm) to protect the prints.
The papers we have chosen for printing our exhibitions meet two essential criteria, among others: beautiful colour rendering and durability.
• Exhibitions intended for outdoor display are printed on high-quality 130gsm blue-backed paper.
• For exhibitions intended for indoor display, we have chosen a 550gsm semi-rigid paper to which we attach a simple hanging system. These panels can therefore be hung on a single nail or framed if they are to be displayed in a slightly damp location.
For outdoor displays, our poster formats have been chosen to best suit “election” billboards:
• Large outdoor format (84 x 119 cm) for maximum impact. With one poster per billboard, you will need eight in total.
• Small outdoor format (63 x 93 cm) so that two posters can be placed on the same billboard... meaning you only need to install four billboards.
• Indoor exhibition (50 x 70 cm): 8 prints to hang on 5 linear metres of free wall space.

Siamese twins are not the result of the hybridization of two forest plants, they are not graduates of Water and Forestry: they are graduates of Applied Arts.
Having worked for many years as a direct rices artistic, the Siamese twins are now exploring the possibilities offered by artistic research with two heads, two hearts, two bodies, four arms, four hands... and one brain (at least!), by looking towards painting, sculpture and screen printing.
