Babé combines engraving with embroidery and collage in Les peintures du dehors at Ardentes. The works address collective identity, respect and feminist perspectives through these different materials. The exhibition brings printmaking and textile interventions together in the library, with questions about human relationships and the living world running through the images.

Textile Art Exhibition in Neuilly-en-Sancerre: George Sand
At the lavoir in Neuilly-en-Sancerre, textile art enters into dialogue with the sensitive and independent world associated with George Sand. Fibre and fabric offer a material language for themes that move between memory and imagination. The textile medium fits this exchange particularly well because cloth carries traces of labour, domestic life and touch, all closely connected with the rural society Sand observed. The exhibition avoids literal illustration of her books and frames textile creation as a contemporary response to their atmosphere and freedom. The modest communal setting reinforces that relationship, joining artistic interpretation with a place once shaped by everyday work and shared local use in the heart of the Sancerrois.
