The Entremet is a project focused on the conception, exchange and interpretation of a recipe, conceived by a dozen of participants from different steps (residency, journey, game, lecture, etc.). Reflecting on the economy of art, from its inception to its distribution, The Entremet takes shape of a box which contains several art pieces to be interpreted. Each one of them are ingredients which address to a future user. 

The Entremet will be shown in the exhibition La Vie des Formes ( The Life of Forms) at the museum of modern and contemporary art Les Abattoirs, Toulouse, France. June 29 - September 3, 2012.
