The exhibition, in search of meaning, shows art in all its contemplative, sublime, and spiritual light. Our project is based upon principles of mobility and flexibility which determine the layout of the exhibition rooms: partitions, ceilings, lighting, all movable and removable thanks to framing rails in place at floor level. The open museum corresponds to a new willingness to tear down walls. Our museum invites the spectator to sink into a playful universe of landscape construction, in the image of the nature that surrounds it. The project focuses on forces that make us move: walks and views, interior and exterior framing. We conceived of an object with two facets: a calm and contemplative interior, dedicated to the exhibition of artworks; an exterior opening onto the landscape, providing views that take the breath away. We stand by a project that though ambitious is attentive to what is human, at the same time functional and environmental. The power of our project consists in providing a surprising proportion to the spaces, subjecting them to follow a one-way path. Vertically, both floor and ceiling shift, respecting the logic of a visit that progresses in a descent along a gentle slope. The possibility of opening up the levels into one allows for the creation of exhibition spaces of significant height.
