Osiris,
Egypt's Sunken Mysteries
2015
Graphic and digital design for this traveling exhibition which first took place in Institut du monde arabe in Paris (Arab world institut). It continued in British Museum in London and in Rietberg Museum in Zurich.
This 1100 square meters exhibition presented 250 objects found during ten years of marine excavations conducted by the archaeologist Franck Goddio. These pieces from the immersed city Thonis or Heracleion were often the vestiges of the ceremony dedicated to god Osiris. This objects were complemented by around forty works from the museums of Cairo and Alexandria.
These discoveries, with their unique historical significance, have enable visitors to be immersed in one of the founding legends of the Egyptian civilisation.
