Nests, burrows and other refuges – Teva
Commissioned by the Contemporary Art Fund of Meyrin Switzerland, the installation takes the form of a boat as a projection of the nest, the idea of Noah’s ark – Teva in Hebrew – carrying on board all the species per couple, the ideals and the illusions. An ark washed up after the flood. A promise of a roof, a nest to rebuild and the fragility of the boat like a dream. A roof-boat where everything is reflected and first and foremost our projections. The nest-cocoon inside the boat, the only living thing, carries the promise of dreams. Maturation and growth space, matrix of what will hatch, it invites the visitor to question his changes of state. Dreams don’t touch, they live.
