Cumulus

Cumulus, 2011.

Exhibition Cumulus Momentum #1.
Installation on the windows of the Jardin d'Hiver (Winter Garden) of La Cité radieuse (Architect Le Corbusier), Marseille, 2011.

The Jardin d'Hiver, that goes from a poppy seed-red wall to a leaf-green wall, measures 42 m wide × 5.20 m high (138 × 17 ft high).
The windows are 69 cm wide × 103 to 140 cm high (27 in wide × 40.5 to 55 in high).

In La Cité radieuse, every apartment has views both over the mountain and the sea and benefits from amazing changes of light. I then invited their inhabitants to write about their favourite sky offering them to interpret their texts on the windows of the Jardin d'Hiver. I created a series of colored compositions with theatre filters and Vicky Colombet's paintings on acetate that reflect on the Jardin d'Hiver's walls and floor.
