EN ATTENDANT ALICE (WAITING FOR ALICE)
2012/2016
Public commission 1%, Collège Jean Jaurès, Saint-Ouen, 2012/2016
Waiting for Alice is a group of nine interventions each of which can be understood in an independent manner but may also be read as a fragment of a broader whole, as a clue in a never solved treasure hunt.Waiting for Alice is thus made of autonomous works but also proposes an exploded form of permanent exhibition in a middle school. These interventions are micro disorders with different degrees of visibility (due to their scales, their obviousness or secrecy, their own nature…), they are some kind of heterogenous puzzle mixing formal variety and open reading.
