Particular Memory

2018.
Site-specific installation, sand

 

It is from the experience of the dark Camargue night that the project to reconnect urban space to its nightlife was born. With "Particular Memory", the intention is to signal the presence of the constellation Orion by using sand as a material to inscribe on the ground the memory of the stars directly inspired by the history and lived experience of the territory. The project resonates with the Mayan culture, the main source of Jean Balladur's architecture and which is recognized for its great astral knowledge.
This ephemeral installation is considered as a means of connection with the inhabitants and their history, to open a retrospective dialogue and to explore the new links maintained with the social, cultural and architectural heritage.
