Espace Dominique Bagouet

Exhibition open from Tuesday to Sunday, 10 AM to 6 PM. Free for all audiences. The Espace Dominique Bagouet is pleased to host, from May 22 to September 6, 2026, the exhibition The Magnets by Marion Fayolle. This exhibition is part of the [Comédie du Livre – 10 Days in May](https://www.10joursenmai.fr/). Author, illustrator, and press cartoonist, Marion Fayolle is the designer of the poster for the 41st edition of the Festival. Highlighting several years of creation, the exhibition brings together original drawings as well as site-specific installations designed especially for this project. The journey invites visitors to immerse themselves in a visual and literary universe where love, bodies, and stories intersect. For this project, Marion Fayolle presents a constellation of drawings and texts from several of her books centered around her favorite theme: love. Analogies and metaphors give form to the invisible, to emotions, to sexuality, and to the ambivalences of feelings. She invites us into a world that is sometimes tender, sometimes cruel, where we slip under dresses, into beds, and play with drawn shadows as if we were part of these images. "I like to put images or words where it’s not easy. And it turns out that emotions, thoughts, and the connections between people are invisible, difficult to see, understand, or materialize. That’s exactly where I find meaning in drawing or saying. It’s about finding a form, a presence to things that don’t have one" Marion Fayolle BIOGRAPHY Born in 1988 in Ardèche, Marion Fayolle lives and works today in Drôme.
