In a nutshell

Accroche
When night falls, come and wonder at the spectacle of hundreds of scales rising up on Place Bellecour, undulating under the murmur of a light breeze.

When night falls, come and wonder at the spectacle of hundreds of scales rising up on Place Bellecour, undulating under the murmur of a light breeze.

They rise from the ground, floating in a multi-hued wave of light. Let yourself be captivated by this poetic interlude lulled by the melodious sound of a flute.

Artistic intent

To create the 80-metre long, 20-metre high wave more than 350 kakemonos made of spinnaker cloth were used.  This installation is the third opus in a creative process initiated by Sébastien Lefèvre illuminating sails floating in the wind following on from Oriflammes on Pont Lafayette in 2012 and Sous le vent on Pont Schuman in 2014.
