UN DRÔLE DE LUNDI – Jeanne Macaigne

To mark the release of this new album, Jeanne Macaigne is exhibiting illustrations from the book and her personal work at Artazart, from October 20 to December 11, 2022.

Vernissage and book signing on Thursday, October 20, 2022!

One Sunday afternoon, Nena, sighs over her fate as a child (the grass always seems greener elsewhere!) and proposes to a little ant trotting on her hand to change skin with her. The child discovers the difficult, laborious life of the ant farm, with its joys and sorrows. For her part, the ant settles into the comfortable life of a child, who goes to school every day and becomes part of human society… Each explores the other’s life, changing scale, one suddenly so small in a huge world, the other lost in a world she struggles to understand. This becomes difficult when they want to change things, to bring a little ant-like rigor to the classroom or a little human poetry to the anthill…

Filled with details, funny and tender, Jeanne Macaigne’s images carry us away. The illustrator sometimes flirts with the comic strip and enjoys contrasting these two universes that everything opposes.
