Lotus : Pléiades festival

After a two weeks at Vincennes castle, Lotus joined the program of the Pléiades festival in Saint-Etienne, an event at the crossroads of art, science and technology. Visual and sound experiences, monumental or intimate, the artistic program presented invited the public to immerse themselves in a sensitive, poetic and symbolic universe.

Lotus is a floral landscape that unfolds in space, inviting spectators to wander freely. Light from the plant’s structure is diffused by its large leaves, creating a relaxing, evolving atmosphere. The Lotus flower, a positive symbol of renewal and spirituality, invites the viewer to engage in an individual or collective meditative experience. The dimensions of the work invert the relationship of scale: here, man is the size of an insect immersed in immense nature.
