Loss, love and family: the French artist explores major subjects that touch our daily lives by shaking standard patterns and beliefs. Here she focuses on the matrimonial classified ads published in different media between 1895 and 2019, collected by the artist and sorted by decade, women’s ads looking for men and the reverse, a mirror of how expectations of a partner changed over a century.
