The exhibition shows the results of the Hors Pistes Nuuk residency which took place in Greenland in 2017. The exhibition aims to relate an encounter with the Greenlandic culture that placed human exchanges at the heart of the creative processes. It narrates stories through the presentation of the experimentations, prototypes and objects resulting from the residency.
The scenography recreates the greenlandic landscapes to offer an immersive experience. The main room is transformed by two monumental pictures. Three transparent printed textile separate the space and guide the visitors in their discovery of the pieces as they walks around the room. The evolutive lighting and the ambient sound create a sensorial encounter with the greenlandic landscape.
