In response to an invitation from Galerie B-312 to celebrate its 30th anniversary, this exhibition brings together Maxime Bruneau and zipertatou, who developed a collaborative project with artist's children. The children were involved in the entire process of creating an artistic video: the puppets were designed from their drawings; the sets were created in response to their ideas; they performed during the filming and composed the music and songs.

In her new exhibition, Marie-Eve Beaulieu revisits 15 years of her career by recovering old paintings and sketches, from which she cuts the canvas into tiny squares, which she then weaves. The initial questioning of Et si on recommençait ? (What if we started again?) is ethical and questions the gestures of the artist who collects materials and produces works that accumulate over the years.

This exhibition is organized by zipertatou, accompanied by Maxime Bruneau whom he invited to lead a collaborative project with a group of children, of which at least one parent is an artist, directly involved in the conceptualization of the content of the exhibition.
