La Grotte de Gargas

Under supervision of Heidi Fontas and Nicolas Ferrer the project went through a 3 months preparation process before finally happening at the beautiful historical monument site of Gargas. Far less known than la Grotte Chauvet or Lascaux, the visitors here have the amazing opportunity of visiting "the real thing" not yet a replica.
