Halfway between a monograph and an artist's book, the publication Le fil d’Ariane follows an intervention by artist Aude Moreau, which began within the walls of Galerie la Centrale in Montreal and ended somewhere between Venice and Heraklion. Through the photographic and textual traces documenting this double journey, the book closes the loop on the entire process by publishing the unpublished version of the journey. It is accompanied by a text by Bernard Schütze which situates the entire process of disappearance at the heart of the artist's action.
