The exhibition title reflects the uncertain times during the spring 2020 when 40 creators, artists, designers, artisans or graphic artists continued to work and collect objects despite being confined by the effects of the global pandemic.
A vivid example is the film ‘Les Impatients’ by Alexandre Humbert which illustrates the teeming imagination and activity of artists in spite of adverse circumstances.
