Habiter
Hosted by the Berceau d’Arthur at Charleville-Mézières.
A Traveller arrives with her kit house on her back and gradually sets up a house, a sort of itinerant refuge in full view of the children present. She builds her hut in full view of and in collaboration with the children, using the various materials that make it up: wooden strips, fabric, Plexiglas, paint, etc.

Déplacer des montagnes
Hosted by the Moussaillons at Mouzon.
Inspired by a geological fault, this miniature landscape installation is an invitation to pass beneath the earth’s crust, to slip into the crack, to compose, assemble, make and unmake the landscape, to literally move mountains. To cross the landscape is to transform it, to modify it, to leave a trace of one’s passage. The installation is made up of dozens of handmade objects in chestnut, cherry, pine and beech; inspired by the shape of Scandinavian runes, they represent humanist ideas and concepts, interlocking, dissociating and assembling ad infinitum.
