Born in Brussels in 1955, Pierre Devreux is a self-taught visual artist. He began his career in the 1980s.

A committed artist, Pierre Devreux questions the lack of dialogue and interactions between human beings.

Produced for the magazine "Kult, Carnet de Voyage Sénégal", Angie Pir's collages, Jemmy Lamar's illustrations and Xavier Lozet's photos tell the story of Côte FM, a community radio station in Nianing (Petite Côte in Senegal). However, these works reveal much more than a trip; they are the reflection of an adventure that leaves no-one unscathed, of an experience that is so overwhelming that it has to be shared.
