These prints, most of the time produced in his own laboratory, constitute almost unique works.<\/p>\n<p>In 2021, his series of Khamseen deserts, mixing digital and analog imagery, was recognized in the final of the Florence and Damien Bachelot Collection Print Prize (CIPGP). Three copies of this series were then acquired by Les Abattoirs, Mus\u00e9e \u2014 FRAC Occitanie Toulouse.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, Leah Desmousseaux returns to her native country and settles in Escamps. The artist then carried out several regional residencies in the Lot and Ari\u00e8ge during which she became interested in the experience of caves. She then produced, based on the 3D modeling of the Pech Merle cave, a photogravure with art master Fanny Boucher (Atelier H\u00e9lio&#8217;g) for the National Center for Plastic Arts (CNAP) and the Association for the Development and research on art libraries (Adra) as part of the national order for prints \u201cTimes are changing\u2026\u201d. These multiples join the collections of the entire network of Adra member art libraries.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;60px&#8221;][vc_tta_tabs style=&#8221;modern&#8221;
