Exposition Ichtus © Abbaye d'Arthous

Immerse yourself in the poetic world of artist Daniel Mestanza and discover, in the heart of the old abbey church, a contemporary art installation that you will remember!

Walk through the door and find yourself at the bottom of the ocean in the air: fish, rays, a whale or an octopus in motion. This universe in light, completed by a sound device, transports you and recalls the primary function of this place dedicated to contemplation and meditation.
