PAYSAGES EN EXIL

IM Greenhouse sunset
I found an experimental installation in Toulouse, France. This is a unique blend of architecture and nature. The “cloud” brings a level of abstraction to those wandering on the path to the garden, almost containing people in this experience and separating them from the rest of the world for the duration of the walk.

IM Pink cloud's night view
The project finds its genesis in the description of “wandering plants phenomenon” made by Gilles Clément who is gardener.

IM Family inside the greenhouse
This project invites visitors to participate in the journey of a seedling. Upon entering, people are encouraged to randomly select a medicinal seedling from one of five continents. Continuing their journey through the greenhouse, over a mist-covered footbridge, they are welcomed by a garden where the seedling could be planted.
