Fabrice Hyber - La fabrique du climat - Musée d'Art moderne et contemporain des Sables d'Olonne

"Climate is an important part of our daily lives. Cold, sunshine and rain set the pace for our energies. But it is above all the differences in climate that generate our ways of life. Living in a desert with no difference in weather patterns encourages us to take restricted actions in our lives.

 

Living in Europe, and also in the West, demands that we adapt regularly to the seasons and then to the refinements of each type of weather. This imposes an extra activity and an adaptive opportunism that makes us find solutions and then create.

 

In the museum spaces of Les Sables d'Olonne, I'd like to bring together a group of historical works on weather and climate with recent works on my latest reflections on the subject.

 

Under the cloister sail, perhaps a garden combining the climate installation with refrigerators and plants from extreme environments, or a fountain of Bessines humans in water that would no doubt warm up with the summer sun. The sale is a hybrid link that calls for adapted proposals, and this reminds me of the thirst for extreme adventures that have made our regions a nest of adventurers.

 

At the abbey, I'm imagining proposals for project designs, either for architecture or for systems in a changing world with global warming or climate change. The same disruption that makes it necessary to adapt if we can't stop it.

 

The exhibitions will be rich in images and hyber-optimistic projects."
