The Monument of small animals

An airy fiber structure, interconnected and hold in the air is hovering above the south part of the flat mown of park Guillemin.

The structure seems autonomous and not connected with fundaments to the soil but just laid in the earth.

Placed between the trees it has a formal connection to the forms of the branches, but it is clear that the soft shiny fiber derives from another place and could one day go to another place. But for the time of the exhibition it creates a place to sit under, relax or exchange. Without keeping away the sun or the rain or having any concrete functional purpose, this is achieved through its ghost-like but tenderly attractive spatial and physical presence.
