The Call of the North

At 10 years old, we all dream about our adult life. But Thibaut had a very precise idea : one day, he will become a musher. Except that Thibaut grew up in the North of France, in a family which hate dogs, and he never left his native region. Today, he's 41 years old, and he's giving himself a challenge: be part of the biggest european trainee dogs running, in the north of the Polar Circle. This means that he will have to leave his family for three months and fight the "Great White Silence" loneliness and dangerousness.

Papa, maman, Perret et moi. Un appartement pour témoin

“This was, a priori, a more familiar commission, as I had lived in Le Havre – it’s actually the only town I know a little. And I’ve always liked the architecture of Auguste Perret…Annette Haudiquet, a curator at the Malraux museum, asked me to come to Le Havre. She had planned visits to different sites. We began with the Perret show-apartment, accompanied by the guides Elisabeth Chauvin and Pierre Gencey. We had lunch, I went to their home – they also live in a Perret apartment, arranged identically to the show-apartment. And I imagined the two of them with their son Vincent, as characters “acting” as the residents of the show-apartment. With this first idea, I accepted the commission: staging them as residents of the apartment when, in reality, they are the guides, between two realities, two epochs: the apartment that they live in and the one they show to people”.
