Beijing based French Niko de La Faye invites you to the screening of the images he brought back from Dakar and to share with you the stories of this 6-weeks African trip that did not happen at all as expected…

Last May M2B project was in Africa. For its 7th year traveling around the world it took part of DAK’ART biennale, one of the main contemporary art event in Africa, with the ‘M2B Dakar’ exhibition and a series of performances in the streets of the Senegalese Capital. 


This is a new big step in this hybrid art project combining kinetic-sculpture, photo, video and performance. After Asia (2011-2013), Europe (2014-2015) and the US (2016-2017), Africa is the 4th continent that M2B visits.

M2B is a representation of the Universe placed upon a traditional Chinese tricycle. It is composed of elements from both Eastern culture, using Taoism symbols and Western science, referring to American physicist Garrett Lisi theory of everything.
