Organized by the association l'Envers des pentes, artists created in altitude the time of a break in refuge.
Artistic approach: "The work of Floraine Sintès (is) playing with infiltrations, parasitizations and addresses. Her interventions, installations, script-objects or protocols work (with) their speci-fic contexts of diffusion, at the margins of exhibitions. Her works are as many indices and proofs of occupations, uses and functions of spaces, passages of moral and physical persons who hold, maintain and support or cross the structures of diffusion. She operates by parasitizing standardized formats, reusing, re-addressing in mirror, displacing, re-mounting existing languages and protocols. Each work plays with characters, with roles and functions, real or fictitious, "false friends" or real allies belonging to a (potential) scenario. His ambiguous objects question how to address, create zones of contact, linkage, attachment outside of cosmetic relationships, as well as the violence of compensation systems while playing with impostures.
Note of intent for the residency: "Floraine Sintès wishes to invest this time of residency at the Parc Naturel des Écrins to carry out a work of research, writing, and video around the questions of protected space / preserved / to be preserved. She wishes to take an interest in the regulations put in place and adopted around the "national park" charter. She will study what allows and induces this labeling, who defines it, votes for it and delivers it as well as its applications on the ground. Discussions and interviews with the refuge's guardians and visitors will be the basis of the video work, with the charter's missions and protections as the starting point for discussion. What is a preserved space, to be preserved, how and by whom is it selected and delimited? Who are the guarantors, the guardians?
