Thus, at the time of the American elections, it was ex-President Obama that he chose to represent on a wall behind the station. While, some time later, the Covid came to decorate one of the faces of the José-Cabanis Media Library. Currently, he is preparing an exhibition at Citron Bleu rue des Polinaires: “The room closed to the show is transformed into an exhibition and sales room. A way to survive for everyone ”.
