« The labyrinth symbolizes our lives.
Versailles symbolizes power.
A Nuit Blanche is a creative moment where one freely walks around.
The continuous thread of my work is to bring to life ‘mise en abime’, to create a sense of weightlessness and elevation ; through an affective, aesthetical or emotional experience, one finds its way to the “intimacy of Light”. »
The goal of this installation was to created a mirrored link in between the identical ‘bosquets’ inside which the symbolic spirit of elevation was “drawn” by two vertical light beam directed towards the Sky. In the first labyrinth, mirrors staged numerous reflections like misplaced fixed frames. A narrative voice spoke about intimacy, creativity and abandonment. A moment to reflect on oneself.
Accessible through an open labyrinth, the presence of the beam enticed each visitor to find his or her way to Light. Given an iridescent balloon they would have to give back into light, each visitor was offered a reflective journey paced by a piano composition by Henri Scars Struck. In the heart of the labyrinth, each balloon would reach the sky as a strong symbol of freedom and lightness. Lightness of being, as if lost in weightlessness…
Sometimes, at random, the magical encounter of both of them (beam and iridescent coated balloon), would cast light in the air, as a newborn star.
