    Workshop led by two artists, Marie Ouazzani & Nicolas Carrier, as part of Diderot’s workshops launched by the Office of Cultural Affairs of the University Paris Diderot

    On Tuesday, December 11th from 5 p.m. at 7 p.m., during a public resti­tu­tion, par­tic­i­pants and artists shows us their final works with screening and instal­la­tions.

    Artists Marie Ouazzani and Nicolas Carrier offer a work­shop on the con­cept of love as seen through its con­nec­tions with land­scapes.

    “To give atten­tion, care, sup­port, kind­ness and pro­tec­tion are dif­ferent forms of love which we can transmit to one another. The par­tic­i­pants will ven­ture around the neigh­bor­hood sur­rounding the Paris Diderot University as in a foggy mys­tery novel, in which images will be the clues and the eco­log­ical sus­pects of a large-scale inves­ti­ga­tion of love. In this up-and-coming dis­trict, where new mate­rials are used to erect count­less build­ings, a love of obser­va­tion will be required – and applied to the archi­tec­ture, the mate­rials, the min­erals, the river – while taking a stroll to uncover the ero­sion of feel­ings.”

    The work­shop will be divided into two stages: par­tic­i­pants will first be asked to create col­lages with doc­u­ments stem­ming from cinema, min­er­alogy, the nearby archi­tec­ture school, urbanism, his­tory and walks around the area, all of which will be used to make a video. They will then get involved in the filming of the video by inventing ges­tures, per­for­mances and actions which will be shot by the artists in dif­ferent areas of the neigh­bor­hood.

    Since 2015, Marie Ouazzani and Nicolas Carrier travel together to explore the rela­tions between nature and cul­ture. Their videos, pho­to­graphic instal­la­tions and infu­sions pro­pose some fic­tions that mix pol­lu­tion, ghosts, ruins and eco­nomics. From simple and daily sit­u­a­tions, they con­front envi­ron­ment and urban­iza­tion through History, sto­ries and sym­bolic impact to rebal­ance those land­scapes ten­sions.
    Recently, their work has been pre­sented in France at the art cen­ters of Villa Arson and 3 bis f, 61th salon de Montrouge and Gaîté Lyrique, in Germany at Haus der Kulturen der Welt, in Ukraine at the 5th Odessa Biennale, in Jordan at Darat al Funun, in South Korea at Gyeonggy Creation Center and in China at Bazaar Compatible Program and C-Platform.
