Susette

She wakes up, stretches, twirls.
Susette dances.

This short comic is based on a statuette found on the Suse archaeological excavation site. It is inspired by the impression of movement emanating from it and tells a poetic story where Susette comes to life and dances, like in a dream.

The comic was on display at the Louvre Museum in the exhibition L’Archéologie en bulles from September 26, 2018 to July 1, 2019.

Project carried out in partnership with the Louvre Museum, Paris.
