I'mlostinParis / 2008

Private laboratory as Duck Blind cabana / in Paris / 130 m² / 1200 Hydroponics ferns / 300 glass beakers ''blowing''components / collecting raining for watering plants / individual drop by drop system with nutritional adding on proportioning controls / insulation with high density PU foam by layers sprayed and covered by geo-textile /

It s the story of an urban witch living behind a rear windows designed as a duck cabana. As alchemist, she feeds the plant with drop by drop hydroponics system watering liquid substances coming from the bacterian chemical preparation in 200 beakers disseminated in the ferns surfaces.The neighborhood is both attracted by the green aspect and repulsed by the brewage and the process to produce it.
