During a short guided tour of the exhibition A truly immense journey, you discover works that showcase the world's natural colours, including the work of artist Yto Barrada. With her project The Mothership, the artist explores natural dyes and the traditional craftsmanship of Tangier in Morocco.
Then it's time to experiment in pairs. Grate, crush and rub turmeric, beetroot, onions or even avocados: you'll end up with natural inks. What colours appear when you add vinegar, lemon or bicarbonate of soda? Each pair will experiment together to create a collection of shades and hues.
Everyone takes home a notebook stained with natural inks as a memento of this joyful and colourful exploration.
