Exposition Bienvenue à Souris-Ville – Les souris d’Odile Bailloeul

Although artist Odile Bailloeul has many means of expression: textile design, painting, children's illustration, etc. This time she invites you into the imaginary world of Souris-Ville.

Inspired by the world of Beatrix Potter and the British cartoonists who used familiar animals in their charming stories, Odile has created characters with endearing personalities who evolve in a world of their own scale.
Little by little, the town of Souris-Ville grew... It eventually moved from the artist's studio to an old shop in Saint-Martin-Lars-en-Sainte-Hermine, renovated in her honour.

Intended to illustrate his children's publications, the mice's environment is teeming with detail! Shops, a school, workshops, a square, storerooms, a museum, a theatre and even a tree trunk provide the 200 little inhabitants of the place with a full and happy life!

If you've still got a child's soul (or if you are one!) you'll be trying to solve the riddles put forward by Harry Patte-de-bois, looking for the 8 characters hidden in this whimsical setting, enjoying the stories that come to life there, noting down the recipes of little chef Honoré on his TV tray and gawking at Joséphine Lépinard's scientific collections...
Odile Bailloeul's workshop will be open for the occasion (150m away).
