Experimenta
The Dream Machine presented in Experimenta lounge invites us to reach a state of consciousness that opens into lucid dreams, where the dreamer is the explorer of their unconscious. Turning on itself, this installation gives the feeling of floating in space as a weightless astronaut weightless in the gap between equilibrium and controlled vertigo. In the manner of an architect, Lionel plays with the cantilevered door and generates all kinds of sensations… Read More

the dreamatory
In the center, a single bed that rotates: the centre of our fantasies. A protective enclave where we can finally let go and return to our childhood state of peace.

Glass Pathway
Sound installation for the Biennial of Contemporary Art “Glass Pathway” is a sound installation in collaboration with Denys Vinzant. Lionel Stocard’s golden trian cars emerge as in a dream, piercing space, in suspension, joining the universe of works by Denys Vinzant which extend through audio and visual flickers of his glass scores written in golden ink. This is a golden railroad to Heavenly Machinery. The train is suspended at a height of… Read More
Cold Room
This installation invites viewers to snorkel in cold water and architecture. Visitors are lulled by the sound world while lying in a blue aquatic environment. Sounds of the forest, birds and water first stationary and then moving take the viewer on a rustic ride. Along the promenade, the trickle of water becomes a waterfall and then a swirl of water and ends in a large room with a very minimalist dripping sound…. Read More
Accoustic Attic
True transgenerational memory, a powerful symbol of the attic room in the house. This work refers to the time and past families who have filed their fragments of memory in the attic. Lionel’s accoustic attic consists of a wooden machinery that echoes the frame of an attic. Through rhythmic movements that reflect a sequence of events and lives, Lionel breathes the sounds of passing time. The backbone of families, this installation embodies… Read More
Mobiles
Lionel’s mobiles are hypnotic machines either suspended in a vacuum, or placed on the ground, which evovle in the space of articulated arms. The viewer finds themselves dreaming in the face of these magic mechanisms and sequence of learned movements. One can spend hours watching these arms that tirelessly build and deconstruct virtual spheres, as one might look at the sea and its’ infinite waves, or fire and its’ dancing flames. Fascination… Read More
