Domestic Skies

 
< >

If the canteen is a place of habits, we wanted it to be made of events in detail: tools and pretexts for the child to meet his surroundings and turn to the others. We have designed an area ranging from familiarity to strangeness, where events of the real are the doors towards somewhere else in mind, and objects are landmarks allowing to weave an emotional relationship with this place. A place to cultivate one's home elsewhere. Among these objects, these domestic things inhabiting the canteen... a Lumone materializes a sky, a vault, which outlines territories... some "Animalis" wake up or respond when asked... It seemed important to provide an area to practice, filled with objects that are not limited in one use but free of interpretations for children. The share of awakening is also that of dream: observation of a shadow, of a light, the lightness or surface of one object, are all triggers for their own narrative, for a world that they would be taking a sketch...
