Terra incognita is a series of landscapes designed by Mickaël Doucet around the notion of new territories, an artistic reflection on the expansion of humanity. Occupation of terrestrial space, conquest of new plots of land, development, organisation and management according to one’s needs to create a living environment favourable to one’s various activities, Man never stops: the notion of territory is historically linked to issues of power and domination. But today, this notion is also becoming the main question of our societies. How will humanity in the future solve the problem of a growing population and what are the limits of this expansion?
