Super Objects invade the Mouffetard, Paris's 3D comics event

In this chilly November season, Le Mouffetard, Centre national de la Marionnette, is warming up to welcome a singular artistic performance. From November 16 to 26, Compagnie Les Maladroits ' audacious "Super Objets " installation will take you back to the world of comic strips.

These artists associated with Le Mouffetard, renowned for their ability to assemble and manipulate everyday objects in surprising ways, have this time created a giant three-dimensional comic strip. Imaginative and lively, this plastic installation brings to life the secret life of ordinary objects, breathing new poetic and humorous meaning into inanimate objects.

If objects could talk, what would they say? Under the creative hand of Les Maladroits, everyday objects come to life to share their feelings, evoking themes of wear and tear and fragility. The result is an installation in which various objects, from a sheet of white paper to knick-knacks gleaned from flea markets, play a key role in expressing a "secret life". It's an invitation to reconsider the materiality that surrounds us every day, and the theatrical potential of the object.
