About the exhibition

This exhibition's playful museography encouraged young people to manipulate, observe, and experiment electricity with a scenography inspired by the fictional world of Alice in Wonderland. Four different approaches were proposed to reach different audience interests: technical, scientific, historical, and everyday life.

The exhibition was realised in collaboration with Olivier Auber (Ingeneer & Multimedia), Pascal Peyeur (scenography) and Michel Tortel ( design) and the Cité des Sciences team.
