JP.GANEM – CROSSED OVER LANDSCAPE
Mardi, novembre 10th, 2009Baunat, Chaval, Delprat, Estor, Vitrac.
Due to the time and effort put into this project on behalf of participants (farmers, the association in charge of the project, etc.), this work managed to have a long life. Poor weather conditions during the sowing period caused delays that could have been fatal to the project.
The project consists of a 9-meter wide strip of sunflowers crossing over the landscape on the edge of a field, highlighting the beautiful irrigularity of the plot and unifying all the elements of the landscape.

The unimpressive square in the former zoo site is covered with poured concrete slabs. 13 shapes form a pattern which has been adopted by the artist from French sculptors Jan and Joel Martel. The latter designed abstract concrete trees in the 1920s, presenting a “perfect unity of architecture and art” in Boyce’s opinion. Select interspaces of the concrete slabs were inlaid with brass strips made by the Scottish sculptor to form letters: We are still and reflective, as says the lettering. Being aware of the message set in the ground fills the desolate place with emotion and meaning.
