Alioune Diagne - En galerie

Alioune Diagne, following his success at the 2024 Venice Biennale, presents his new series "Saytu" at Galerie Templon in Paris. The series documents endangered rites and traditions of minority communities in Senegal, rendered through his signature "signes inconscients" that blend abstraction and figuration. The works capture the spiritual energy of ceremonies and explore themes of knowledge transmission, women's roles, and cultural heritage preservation.
