L'Œil noir
Yohanne Lamoulère
A roundabout on the outskirts of town. An iconic feature of France, overlooked and unloved. Many see it as nothing more than a hole, a gaping void. But it is at this crossroads, this vortex, that by throwing yourself into its eye, you encounter a vibrant world, the vitality of an entire neighbourhood.
