Stéphanie Pineau

“This work takes part in the trends of Land Art and performative art as these stagings were created on site. I made a short film about four performances that I did in situ in different locations. The performances are represented by the sets that I created. The work invites the interlocutor to question themselves about the relationship they have with space by imagining it differently. Moreover, the work refers to the sublime and the dangerous. The sublime provokes an effect of stupefaction, inspired by fear or astonishment.”
