This week with Eugénie Bitty Arts

Eugenie Bitty Arts had a meeting this week to review the success, impacts and key learning from the group exhibition at La Maison Muller.

At the results of the discussion, we have decided to organise an exhibition in May 2022 to exhibit a collection of her work in Paris.

I trust already that the work we will produce will have great success.

I am inviting all my collaborators to visit her site and subscribe to her newsletter to be the first one to know about the event

I set up myself to gain a bit of experience and look for a new job. 18 month ago, I had two interviews, one for a knowledge transfer partnership leading to Ph.D with Birmingham City University and one for a Ph.D with Cranfield University on Sustainability and Communications. Deep inside it was not really what I was looking for. 12 month ago, I almost gave up finding the Ph.D. Then, I changed my mind.
