Description: 

Continuing his research on the cell, initiated in 1974, Yoko Gunji creates a second cell made of tarlatan in the hamlet of Amirat using three guiding principles (self-regulation, self-preservation, and self-reproduction). From the actions and movement of the actors invited to stay in the cell temporarily, she will produce diagrams, drawings and even a painting. She notes that the actions different from those of the first cell that had housed students; here the actions are softer, more intimate.
