Felwine Sarr, Senegal

During his residency at Résidence Tallard, Sarr completed his latest book, La Fabrique du Présent, which draws on African philosophical, ethical, and cultural traditions as resources for imagining shared futures. His months in Paris became a living laboratory of ideas through collaborations with Théâtre de la Ville-Paris, MC93 – Maison de la Culture de Seine-Saint-Denis, mk2 Bibliothèque × Centre Pompidou, La Casa do Povo, La Maison des Métallos, Fauvettes City Club and Les Chichas de la pensée. Lectures, workshops, performances, and an intimate salon invited audiences to reflect on care, hospitality, repair, and more generous ways of inhabiting the world.
