“42 jours”, Yvan Salomone’ s solo show at the Marfret Space in Marseille, France, opens on June 27, 2024.
The show presents a selection of Yvan Salomone’s watercolors and the eponymous film realized as part of his residency within Marfret Guyane, including a 42-days voyage on board of a cargo ship.

This residency allowed Yvan Salomone to discover a world still full of mystery for the layman. Giving free rein to his imagination, his watercolours reveal an infinite palette of emotions. His poetic underlying theme takes us into the world of the watchkeeper. With his artist’s sensitivity, he conjures up the crashing of waves, the deafening rumble and vibrations of the Marfret Guyane’s engines as it speeds through the ocean at 20 knots laden with 22,000 tonnes of cargo.
