The mural is made up of a series of drawings, each in a black circular frame, that are positioned like bubbles floating haphazardly across the walls of the exhibition room. The Mrzyk-Moriceau collaboration is based on the concept of using simple black-and-white drawings to represent a continually expanding universe. Each of the "drawing-bubbles" are inspired by ideas and icons from everyday life, such as advertising, TV, cinema and logos.
Petra Mrzyk was born in Nuremberg in 1973 and Jean-François Moriceau in Saint-Nazaire in 1974. They currently live in Chatillon-Indre and their collaborations often carry Bond-themed titles. Their previous works include A View to a Kill (2007), Diamonds Are Eternal (2002) and Goldfingers (2006).
