Exclave
In Moscow the artist chose a site suitable to host the portion of French ground and then took a sample of Russain soil to bring with her on her return journey. Therefore ubiquity access points take shape: a microconsulate set in the sidewalks of the city. The artist conquers fragments of territory which she makes usable in other places, holding a thread, creating magnetic poles of attraction, identifying social and territorial ties concerning belonging. The public is called to interact with the Portable Ground: the operation thus opens reflections on issues, such as feeling foreign and the possibility of integrating within a new context.
