For the third edition of the Toulouse residency, the search for a missing origin connects the work of three artists. In the form of an investigation they explore the untraceable part of their identity, located in the cosmos, in Italian migration or in the Vietnamese diaspora, supported in their research by astrophysicists, neuroscientists, historians and psychologists. Astrobleme, thought through from its genesis with the astrophysicist Jean-Philippe Uzan, explores the links that unite humanity to its stellar origin. Appelez-moi Victoria is a visual archaeology of memory, genealogy and exile, a questioning tied to the consequences of Italian immigration and integration in France. Appel manqué sets the testimonies of the third French-Vietnamese generation living in the city against what scientists know of the transmission of memory, its forgetting, even its denial, and is built on the re-appropriation of family stories.
