One-night-only book making
workshop created to collect a series
of bilingual stories from various
Montreal neighbourhoods. Using the
stories gathered for the Block Party
project in Pointe-Saint-Charles as
the base of the collection, new parti-
cipants were now invited to share
their own anecdotes. These stories
were then transcribed, translated,
type-set, printed and bound.
By morning, we had published
about forty short stories ranging in
subject from the tales of generous
convenient store clerk to social
struggles that shouldn't be forgotten.

Interactive sonorous and luminous
landscape installed in a vacant
public space during winter time.
Passersby were invited to activate
the installation by speaking into
the hollow of the trees. Voices echoed
in the forest and triggered light
variations. It was possible for several
participants to call out to each
other from tree to tree. As far as
we know, several speeches, conver-
sations, songs, rhymes, jungle calls
and heavy metal performances
took place.

Collective project aimed at activating
an unoccupied public square.
Wooden platforms were proposed
as an alternative to the existing,
and unwelcoming, concrete structure.
Over the course of a few months,
the platforms had transformed
the square into a cozy seating area,
a stage for spontaneous performances,
a writing space and a skate ramp.

Thesis project – research and essay –
on the memoirs of the Saint-Ouen
workers. As an influential collective
of workers and activists during
the 20th century in the suburbs of
Paris, Saint-Ouen is facing an urban
renewal plan which may erase
various historic sites in the city.
By interviewing those involved,
workers, unionists, urban planners
and members of the communist
party – running cityhall at the time –,
I explored the efforts and the way
to maintain a connection with
memories in the context of a city
in transition. In the same way that
cinema or radio can be used as
powerful documentary tools, I was
considering how to engage graphic
design as a media and method
of sharing memory.

Collection series on the memoirs
of the Saint-Ouen workers.
"Black Hands", "Red Eyes" and
"Blue Collars and White Collars"
were the first thematic titles
proposed for the organization
of a series of interventions,
meetings, records and screenings
on labor. Each of them respectively
concerned, gestures and know-
how, the victories and failures
of going on strike and the relation-
ship between supervisory staff
and workers. These questions
were to be discussed and compared
to today's work circumstances.
