From a photograph by his friend Lubliner, Slimane Ismaili Alaoui alias Nassyo has transformed the Eiffel Tower into a rocket ready to take off. The launch light signals its new identity, as do the lights lit underneath. Next to it are two Chinese ideograms signifying fortune and luck. The image invites the gathering of civilizations. If the conquest of space is often synonymous with rivalry, the photograph presents it to us in a joyful and playful way, as a place of freedom and adventure to be experienced together.
