This exhibition is an encounter between the history of Saint Barthélemy and the talent of the artist Nicolas Ouchenir. It showcases artworks made with his favorite material, indigo ink, which was with cotton the main activity of Saint Barthélemy in the past.
At the end of the 17th century, indigo was the main crop in Saint Barthélemy with about ten indigo factories including both plantations and facilities.
