Pisseurses brings together a collection of oil pastel drawings, a series of portraits of the artist and her peers urinating outdoors in various contexts. A brief science fiction short story carries the whole work into a utopian dimension that resignifies the trivial act of micturition.

"(...) Here, nothing is erotic; everything is about play, provocation, punk prankishness. It is truly about occupying the space of representation. Occupying, taking place, taking up space, taking one's place. But,rather than from a heroic and conquering position, quite the contrary, it is about imposing oneself with trousers pulled down, bare-assed, peeing. (...) Maïc Baxane and her accomplices foment a joyful, colorful revolution in a single gesture of collective defiance that rejects assignments and confining conventions, and that favors dissidences."
