Girafawaland is an exhibition where fact and fiction are constantly playing hide and seek. A surrealist, poetic, critical and tongue-in-cheek parable of colonialism, this exhibition explores with humour our relationship with the other and with nature.

It is in West Africa, and more precisely in the country that soon became known as Girafawaland, that the peaceful Girafawaras people lived in total symbiosis with nature and enjoyed a close and mysterious bond with the many giraffes that populated the area.

The exhibition Girafawaland, curated by artists Kiki and Albert Lemant, presents this extraordinary adventure. Aimed at children and adults, this exhibition where fact and fiction are easily confused poses the question of colonialism and the extinction of civilisation and species with poetry and humour.
