À bout toucher by Nicolas Daubanes presents the artist's significant works since 2010 as well as his most important exhibitions since 2017 and seeks, above all, to show his way of working.

Nicolas Daubanes develops a personal language that translates into the use of certain materials and gestures such as iron powder (magnetized or embedded in glass or porcelain), concrete loaded with sugar, the representation of a prison roof during a mutiny, the use of dental ceramics, that of scotch tape holding broken glass, or even the production of alcohol in prison, etc. So many gestures and materials that seem distant from each other but which all tend towards the same purpose: the release of constraint, the search for a space of freedom.
