At the very moment in which the troubled piece of Parisian urban land is being
dismantled again, artist
Larissa Fassler tries to preserve the
“complex
derelict knot of rail and Métro interchanges, subterranean retail chain
stores, tunnels, and passageways that make up Les Halles today”.
Through cheap cardboard paper the artist experiences the space of the
banal, of the eveyday, the shop, the mall, the passageways and the
escalators.
Miniature fragments contrast, with their near-obsessive precision, the dysfunctional emptyness of derelict non-lieux.
