Writing & Fanzine Workshop by Les Piñatas

On February 21 and 28, 2026, as part of the exhibition Elastic Bodies in collaboration with Lucie Pastureau, the Institut pour la photographie is offering a two-part workshop*, conceived and led by artists Juliette Huber and Edel Pradot, members of the collective Les Piñatas.

The workshop begins on february 21 by a writing on the Body and Intimacy . Through guided exercises, participants are invited to explore the complexity of our bodies and the stories we tell ourselves about them, to try to reconcile ourselves with certain parts of our bodies, to heal our scars, to massage our stories, and to smile at what is transforming.

This writing session is followed by a workshop on fanzine creation on February 28. Using written texts, photographs, papers of various textures, and other materials provided, each participant creates a personal journal that combines images and words related to the themes explored.

Speakers:
