This is the story of two words written on the back of a postcard. We talk about everything and nothing, about what we see, what we have seen, or what we would like to see. We do not tell extraordinary things, and we do not always have the room to do so. Writing a postcard means taking a break, and it is a game. We imagine the wonder of the other person who will discover our beautiful postcard on their doormat.
In the age of everything digital, ÉCRIS-MOI! is an exhibition that celebrates, with mischief and poetry, writing and the postcard. In the usual format of 10 x 15 cm (the A6 format), this small piece of paper was born in France during the war of 1870, allowing soldiers and civilians to communicate quickly. After a golden age at the beginning of the century, it became anachronistic with the development of social networks.
