A world apart

Place aux arts, Fougères, France

30 may to 21 september 2025

Improbable creatures made of cement, natural pigment, vegetable filasse, rebar, stumps, metal rods and welded coins… Lionel Sabatté’s world brings together a whole population of figures, sometimes anthropomorphic, sometimes zoomorphic, all at once attractive and disquieting. Metamorphoses, metempsychoses and other things are the vectors for the revelation of a world apart, between reality and fiction. One surpasses the other and vice versa, drawing us into a fantastic elsewhere. Sabatté’s art is a singular reflection on the vital and the artefact, happily combining curiosity and wonder. His birds, fish, unicorns, aurochs, human figures and gargoyles are the guests of Fougères for one summer.
