Two-channel video (HD, colour, sound), wooden easels, vinyl sticker, panel painting (environment)
Dimensions variable
This site-specific environment consists of two flat screens mounted on easels, placed at both ends of a room. Each screen plays a single video channel. The soundtrack is calibrated according to the specificities of the space: when standing in the middle of the room, visitors can barely hear the sound of the video playing at each end of the corridor.
