This minimalist artwork features a stark blue background with a series of dotted lines and labeled locations. The visual elements emphasize simplicity, with the composition consisting of a geometric, abstract design. The subject matter depicts a conceptual map or diagram, with the labeled locations of Marseille, Milan, and Annaba suggesting a connection or relationship between these destinations.

Established in Paris since 2010, mor charpentier represents both emerging and well-established artists whose conceptual practices are anchored in social realities, history and the politics of contrasting geographic regions. By promoting international practices, the gallery aims to broaden the knowledge of crucial debates of the present.
