Before cleaning out her aunt Louise's house, FLORE discovered a lengthy correspondence with Lavinia, an Italian friend.

The letters and the name immediately echoed George Sand's eponymous text: “I now love nothing but traveling, daydreaming, solitude, the sound of the world, to pass through it and laugh about it, then poetry to withstand the past.”

FLORE has decided to evoke, through more or less familiar landscapes, the states of mind running through this correspondence, to form a collection of impressions of Italy on the one hand, carving a portrait of Lavinia on the other.

The exhibition consists of previously unseen works by FLORE, including pigment prints, photographic prints and lithographic stones.
