In her new series of works, the artist deals with questions of preservation, which means the question of inheritance, keeping, holding in value or valuing.
We are all attached to certain objects, not necessarily because of their material value, but because they have always accompanied us, as objects of memories. Childhood memories of a silver spoon, the scissors skillfully used by grandmother, mysterious vases painted with flowers that were simply always there and fired out imagination. And, of course, old photos that keep blurred or vanished memories alive forever, always retroactively telling and shaping our own history.

Havarie 2021
Havarie f (genitive Havarie, plural Havarien) accident, emergency (most often of a ship);
collision, crash, loss by sea
A pool in almost perfect condition, condemned to disappear in the near future.
HAVARIE seems to perfectly describe the condition of this site, which is sinking into destruction and oblivion.
A pool emptied of its water without a purpose, all but a volume in space.
HAVARIE spelled out at the bottom of the empty pool foretells the site’s future. Ambient sounds create an atmosphere alluding to activity past or present.
External visual stimuli coming through the large windows are blocked out, to help immerse the visitor in the pool’s familiar sounds, and to raise awareness of a new and strange atmosphere.
