Protected volumes 1

Volumes protégés

These are two huge volumes, erected in the Guy Favreau complex. They are made of "frost" fencing, the kind that surrounds any space that one wishes to remove from the right of passage: prisons, airports, schoolyards and private gardens, etc. This constitutes the faces of the two volumes, volumes that then become protected. Places where nothing can happen, where peace of mind and order reign. The scale of the volumes is the same as that of the two towers that made up what was the World Trade Center. The evocation of this unfortunate event reminds us of the day when our security became our own prison.
