Project presented as part of Artbord, Circulation, 1st edition, at the Parc de la Rivière-aux-Sables, Jonquière (Saguenay) in 2000.
Under the theme Circulations, bodies and ideas experience places, the Parc de la Rivière-aux-Sables becomes a station where a network of reciprocity develops between artists and the public. The park, the watercourse and the Nikitoutagan pavilion prove to be a source of dialogue and will lend themselves to words and actions. Knowing that the methods of dissemination of contemporary art are expected to be renewed, we consider that it is necessary, today, to question the visibility of art. By what means can we broaden the dissemination of art, until now centralized in artistic environments designed to host works? As part of the project, Marc Dulude will deploy a network and pipe system in a scaffolding. The construction made from plastic bottles will be deployed on the scaffold and presents itself as a set of heterogeneous constructions where the water drawn from the Rivière-aux-Sables will circulate in the various pipes and DIY circuits, thus reproducing the idea of the cycle of nature.
