Origami > Floating dock, Alexis Deconinck, 2020

Building a floating reception pavilion for visitors is improving access conditions to the Festival on the Port à Fumier site in Camon. It is also an opportunity to group reception and ticketing for the public, boarding and disembarking from boats, as well as equipment storage spaces, in the same space. Installation very open to its environment, Origami delicately fits into the Hortillonnages landscape. By its folded and aerial shape, the pontoon is inspired by the Japanese tradition of the art of folding paper. With its large sloping sides, it defies gravity while floating on the water. The wooden structure is visible, it is punctuated by regularly spaced beams which follow the broken line of the roof. A stripped-down, almost naked object, Origami presents a contemporary form where aesthetics and technique are one. The materials are simple, there are few. There is no carpentry or finishing work: everything is structured.

The artist

Alexis Deconinck

Alexis Deconinck defines his creations as follows: "I produce installations at the crossroads of sculpture, architecture and landscape. My exploratory work goes through my hands in contact with matter. The geometry excites my curiosity and I use it to produce shapes inspired by nature. It gives rise to hybrids between human and natural constructions. The analogy between natural processes and human constructions blurs the border that separates us from the wild world. Through installations I invite the spectator to immerse themselves in a connection with nature. Construction is my playground, poetry is my engine. It’s a game between what we perceive as fleeting or eternal. ”
