L’Echelle, Château La Coste - From December 4th to January 17th, 2022
With L’échelle, an ephemeral installation anchored in the Mediterranean, the familiar object transfigures the relationship to space and time.
The work reveals a steel ladder, planted in the water, weighted down to seabed.
L’échelle, combines immensities : the invisible depths, the free movement of the currents, the detached horizon.
Immobile witness of the sun’s course, it is a link between times : the buried past, the flickering present, the lights to come.
The installation, photographed for a day, invites the public to swim to its rungs, to climb and to see itself, for a time, suspended between sky and sea.
