Pourquoi ce blog ?
Il existe tant de talents occultés, tant d’invisibles, tant de perspectives nouvelles à découvrir… et partout, on lit les mêmes infos, on entend les mêmes artistes, on parle des mêmes films. Ici, je veux élargir le spectre du visible, parler de celles qui contribuent à la diversité du monde, et nourrir la réflexion sur notre monde en y ajoutant un regard de genre.
