To give one's tongue to the wall
The wall is an act of love, but it is also a rigorous work of art. All of the languages from the 192 Member States of the United Nations are reproduced. Besides French, English, Italian, Spanish…. Are equally represented less known languages such as Dzongkha, Khirghiz and Bislama. In order to come to a total of 311 declarations of love, we have added Basque, Bambara, Catalan and Corsican, Kurdish, Innuktitut, Navajo, Occitan, Yiddish, and many others. Quite a collection!
