Generations

Light installation

LE FIL JAUNE is a light and sound installation on generational transmission, like a necessary current on what unites each of us. This work is made up of a series of light and sound paintings featuring families of incandescent lamps of different generations. It offers the public a dive into a universe of moving lights with a matrix tree at its heart depicting the faces – bulbs of Lyonnais participants in the project. The music programmed in connection with the light scenario incorporates the voices of the elderly and teenagers of the project.
