L’avenir

Fisherman boat, audio recorder
2014

L’Avenir is a “pointu”; a small traditional fishing boat from Marseille. This popular boat invites people for promenades and swims in the coves of Marseille. The thoughts and fantasies of writers, farmers, historians, doctors, poets, cooks, politicians, industrialists, anthropologists, artists, filmmakers, architects, fishermen, journalists, engineers are recorded away from the shore. This boat is a prospective and discursive platform or a simple invitation to laziness.

The Avenir project was launched on January 18, 2014. That day the local newspaper "La Provence" inserted three monochrome pages matching the colours of the association.
