WALKER, LA VALSIÈRE

Walker 3 is a survey of the Domaine de Valsière, in the suburbs of Montpellier. This unbuilt "natural" space, encircled by dwellings, was ravaged by a fire during the 2003 heat wave. In this lunar space that evokes a deserted battlefield and a western movie, the two artists scrutinize the terrain, searching for traces of a former state, evidence of a past life. Any aesthetic resemblance to contemporary history is purely coincidental.
