A monumental mural in black and grey in a passageway of the Darwin site in Bordeaux. A huge whale painted on the ground and low wall, strikingly realistic in grey tones, seems stranded in the industrial space. The fine linework and detailed textures of the cetacean's skin — furrows, fins, partially open jaw revealing baleen plates — create an almost physical presence. A red and white construction tape crosses the scene, reinforcing the ambiguity between art and reality. A powerful piece about the fragility of marine life.
