Exhibition catalog

COCYTE INC

Cocyte inc. is a commentary on our era and its mechanical systems, viewed through the lens of ancient times and what they can contribute to a reflection on current social issues. Hence the satirical title of the exhibition, which refers to the commodification (Inc.) of the sacred (in Greek mythology, Coyctus is one of the rivers of the underworld). With an approach midway between the mythical and the real, it’s an invitation to delve into a world marked by the irreverence and sensitivity of a humanist gaze on the body in motion. Isabelle de Mévius penned the texts of this publication.
