In-Land. How to become a place

2022, Domain de Boisbuchet, Lessac, FrancePerformanceEducation

In-Land. How to Become a Place is an experimental workshop held at the Domaine de Boisbuchet. The goal is to establish an active dialogue with the estate’s landscape through individual actions, resulting in an installation and a collaborative performance. Participants develop lateral thinking, combining techniques and imagination while working with materials and spatial transformations.

“Monica, Vero, Virgi, Nadia, Anton, Sophie, Blandine, Samuele, Yara, Ines, Erik, Luca. The dawn, the night, the stars, and the whole sky in one room. Us between a horizon of trees, dry grass, sheep shit. Our bamboo house is built in a big, wild, hidden field. In-Land is about building a collective architecture in the ground, unleashing relationships between us, between us and the place, and between us and others. This workshop is a gift, an action to be together, a tribute to playing, a place to experiment with the most disparate things and then unite them in a new imaginative grammar. How to become a place is a response, it is a daily practice that seeks new ways of inhabiting and designing space.”
