« Construction of a work and exhibition space that would generate its own electricity and thus be unplugged from the power grid. Private commission.
Scenario :
1) Construction of an animal engine driven by the muscle power of a pachyderm. Storage of the mechanical energy through the lifting of a two-tonne steel counterweight. Transformation of the mechanical energy into electrical energy. To power ten light bulbs, laptop, cell phones.
2) Natural ventilation through the quivering of the façade leafs made of sheets of silicon that work in the same way as temporary shelters made of teak leafs.
Postscript: An albino Buffalo replaced the Elephant. »
