This is Gareth's fist solo show in France. His installation is inspired by the urban space and ephemeral sales sites, such as the stands of the Parisian "bouquinistes" (booksellers) on the banks of the Seine.

Inhabited by famous African figures of sport, society and politics, his paper pieces can be deployed in space to become sculptures.
