Influence of gravity
This installation, evocative of the solar system, showcases spheres flying through a celestial mechanism. Hypnotic, the composition of the hovering spheres projects us into space and invites us to board a waking dream. We lose track of our bodies and gravity and float weightlessly in the void. Thus begins a lunar trip where we can experience a different relationship to time and space. This installation ignites fascination of celestial objects that are… 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. Suitable for imagination and dreams. All around this refuge, hybrid sounds revolve. This introspective space is defined by a blue halo a calming color that symbolizes both the experience of dreaming and echoes the inner and outer discovery. We are both viewer… Read More

Suspended Time
Man has always been concerned with the measurement of time which rules his life. Man has translated the elusive with paradoxically heavy and massive mechanisms. Conceived as a giant clockwork system whose gears are liberated of their terrestrial axes, the installation evokes the magic of passing time. It renders time intangible, reveals its’ infinite size, and restores its’ unreal power. The viewer experiences the dualities that bring them back to time: mechanical… Read More
The Listening Room
This apertured mechanical igloo of wood measures 3 meters in diameter and 2.50 meters in hight invites visitors to come listen to a song. Consisting of watch mechanisms, cleverly desynchronized, and a motorized system which uses a tailored six track sound composition that is broadcast by a satellite dish twirling around 16 reflectors which are directed at the center of the igloo. The viewer experiences the shift of sensations and finds themselves… 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
