Created for the walking theatre "Where do you go when you’re sleepwalking" by the Carrefour international de theatre, a circuit that brings visitors to discover several performances by artists of various disciplines, this colossal set immersed the artists and spectators in an almost spectral world. The hand-made wire mesh is designed to serve the work presented, the concept taking on its full meaning when illuminated and coming to life when inhabited. As you walk through the vaporous structure, you may end up wondering if it is real or just a ghost.
