“The most sophisticated audio-visual techniques enable Magali Desbazeille to realize her dream – and ours – of transforming herself into the little mouse of our childhood, when we wanted to know what grown-ups jealously kept to themselves.

From the large-scale Tu penses donc je te suis, where the innermost depths of passers-by are revealed through contact with us, to the Table de Séduction, the artist captures fragile confessions whose fleeting indecency fades as soon as they are contemplated.

In the same way, the incongruity of questions asked on the Internet sends us back to what is and will remain vulnerable in us. In this way, the artist skilfully renders tangible the intimate uncertainty of each and every one of us, which is precisely what our modesty closes in on.”
