NOUS SOMMES VOUS
The forest is looking at us.
THE FOREST LOOKS BACK
Giving presence back to trees that have been cut.
NOUS SOMMES VOUS is an artwork and performance that draws part of its concept and expression from Arte Povera.
Like a sacrificial scene or a shamanic ceremony, the spirits of the forest enter an empty, symbolic and initiatory space.
The work expresses the anger of the forest spirits and asks us to recognise trees as ancestral living presences.
