At the entrance to Cimetière de la Bouteillerie – an 18th century cemetery – four lime trees have been trimmed to form a canopy, hovering over a series of glass entities and seeds.
In the town hall courtyard, another stone forager, crowned with bright red grains, looks for seeds of love under a giant Magnolia tree.
Aurélie Ferruel was born in Mamers in 1988 and lives in Saint-Mihiel. Florentine Guédon was born in Cholet in 1990 and lives in Passavant-sur-Layon.
