Cypher
Aix-en-Provence, January 2020 Some writings are not meant to be read, or rather they are written so that they cannot be read. The Ministry of Colonies in Paris wanted to communicate secretly with the Governor of Pondicherry, who was geographically […]

Defending
Paris, december 2019. If many writings circulate from one place to another, they are also displayed to be seen or read in situations. This is all the more obvious for shop signs, labels, and signboards, which much of their action […]
