Safaa Erruas opened the doors of her studio to us, where she was preparing her exhibition “À travers des étendues” (“Through Expanses”), on view at Galerie L’Atelier 21 until October 29, 2022. In it, she explores the motif of the map: “It is always fascinating to look at the Earth as a form of absolute creation,” she recently said, “and to imagine different cartographies inhabiting it, like a blossoming of lives that intertwine and cross paths, that pass through us and that we pass through, in a permanent circulation of ideas, languages, images and contradictions.
