    The images in *Le Verdict* are inspired by pictures showing colloquia and meetings found in the mythologised villa of the Centre d’Édition Contemporaine in Geneva, for which the work was originally commissioned. Printed on wallpaper and glued directly onto the wall, *Le Verdict* combines historical subject matter with simple images of innocuous details and situations to create an ambiguous narrative where the everyday blends with traces of the past.
