Interested in the evolution of forms in their technical and cultural context, the artist works through a multidisciplinary approach and with a focus on remix practices. Indeed, the abstract motifs that decorate the sculptures and carpet in Failed to Synchronize have a familiar yet ungraspable appearance; they evoke the impossibility of the memory to reconstruct the past, as well as the fleetingness of layering memories. A song created by the artist also accompanies the work and provide visitors with a multisensory experience, between individuality and universality. The works in the Out of Spaces series, on the other hand, play on the concepts of the French words espèce (species) and espaces (outdoor and indoor spaces). The artist is fascinated by birds, creatures capable of filling the places they inhabit through the sounds they emit and that serve as reminders for human beings of the passing of time.

This topic was already addressed in 2021 Eight people were fatally injured and one was seriously injured in the above-mentioned occurrences In 2022, two reports showed the pilot’s determination to reach his/her destination. The accident to F-GFGO on 16 February 2020 at Creissels illustrates this safety topic with a flight in which the pilot lost control of the aeroplane in adverse weather conditions for visual flight An occurrence on the same topic gave rise to a report published in 2022: Five people were fatally injured in the two above-mentioned occurrences The term loss of control is frequently used in reports it is interesting to look at the flight phases in which they occurred Except for losses of control during landing the consequences of a loss of control are often severe as the energy of the collision with the ground is high      3.1 Loss of control in aerobatic flight It should be noted that for the latter accident the investigation report addressed the topic of improvised manoeuvres and impaired judgment in the presence of third parties on the ground Three people were fatally injured in the above-mentioned losses of control         3.2 Loss of control during initial climb the pilot must manage the aircraft's flight path while being prepared for the unexpected Discussing potential threats and solutions to deal with them to quickly find the information needed for immediate action The report concerning the accident to F-HRDM on 12 June 2021 in Wambrechies illustrates this topic the pilot and instructor lost control of the aeroplane while performing a turnaround to return to the runway after a problem in the cabin during take-off The report concerning the accident to N918SE on 28 September 2020 at Chevillotte deals with a go-around after an unstabilised approach in IFR flight Occurrences on the same topic giving rise to reports published in 2022: The accident to G-CLDO on 12 May 2019 at Montmorillon was the result of a loss of control after a rejected landing. This topic was also mentioned in the 2021 review Another occurrence is the loss of control following a bird strike involving F-GNNE on 18 April 2021 at Saint Pathus the report states that the aeroplane was probably very difficult to control after the collision with a great cormorant Twelve people were fatally injured and one was seriously injured in the above-mentioned losses of control       3.3 Loss of control on the ground during take-off the aeroplane is flying at a low height and low speed; the losses of control observed do not usually end in a head-on collision with the ground or an obstacle although in rare cases people on board may be injured The following reports illustrate this topic: Solo flight is an essential part of pilot training It allows the student pilot to implement all the skills and knowledge provided by her/his instructors numerous conditions must all be met to let the student fly solo In the report concerning the accident to G-CBGC on 2 November 2020 off Cannes aerodrome the reader can find information concerning the supervision of solo flights carried out at night Lastly, in the report concerning the accident to the electrical-powered aeroplane,  F-HGAH on 30 June 2022 at Aix-les-Milles the pilot indicated that she was surprised by the aeroplane’s behaviour when flying it with a low weight once the instructor was no longer on board On this topic, the DGAC (French civil aviation authority) has published a guide for instructors on the supervision of solo flights.  One person was fatally injured and one was injured in the above-mentioned occurrences The accident to F-ORVY is a special case because it was not a solo flight authorised by the training organisation and because the circumstances of the disappearance of the aeroplane and its pilot suggest that it might have been intentional a topic concerning aeroplane maintenance and engine malfunctions was identified pilots were confronted with a loss of power or even an engine shutdown which forced them to make a forced landing or a ditching On this subject, the report concerning the accident to F-HPMO on 5 September 2021 at Bedous can be consulted the pilot was forced to land in a field because the engine was not providing power due to a faulty electrical supply resulting from inadequate maintenance This problem had already been reported on a previous flight The report concerning the accident to F-HFBR on 17 March 2021 at Pessac, particularly addresses the exceedance of the 50-hour inspection intervals (including in the time between overhaul (TBO) extension period) and the non-application of the manufacturer's recommendations in the event of a lengthy downtime. Occurrences on the same subject giving rise to reports published in 2022: There were no fatal accidents in the above-mentioned accidents.

diaries that would link the men to the massacre that took place in the French village of Oradour-sur-Glane on June 10 no substantial evidence had been uncovered during the raids.” Four days after the Normandy landings that marked the start of the liberation of France and Europe from Nazi occupation Oradour was destroyed by a detachment of SS troops for reasons that have never been made clear Women
