Vernissage de l'exposition de Camille de Cussac « Écris-moi ! »

Artazart

In the age of all things digital, "ÉCRIS-MOI !" is an exhibition that celebrates, with mischief and poetry, writing and the postcard. In the age of all things digital, ÉCRIS-MOI ! is an exhibition that celebrates, with mischief and poetry, writing and the postcard. In its usual format of 10 x 15 cm (the A6 format), this little 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. Between 2000 and 2025, mail volume dropped by 80%, and since the beginning of last year, 25 mailboxes have disappeared in France every day… Through this exhibition, Camille de Cussac and Artazart raise a cry of resistance in favor of the postcard and epistolary writing! A graduate of the École de Condé in Paris, Camille de Cussac, an internationally recognized Parisian illustrator, has an inimitable line and color palette. Using her posca markers, she draws what surrounds her, her travels as well as her contemporaries, with great humor and tenderness. Camille already has around fifteen books to her name (written and/or illustrated), the latest of which, "Mamita Sandwich," was released in 2025 by Editions de l'étagère du bas. Recently, she also tried her hand at animated short film, which she co-wrote with Caroline Torelli and for which she created all the graphic design. "Il est une fois" is now selected at more than 50 festivals, including the Festival d'Annecy.
