Navir Avenir
Pôle d'Exploration des Ressources Urbaines - coordinated by Sébastien
Thiéry, has been working with architects, designers, artists, researchers and
dozens
of schools and research groups in Europe to design a European rescue vessel to
be
made available to organizations saving lives in the Mediterranean.
PEROU has launched a shipyard project aiming to be designed and floated by 2024:
a sea
rescue boat; a place of welcome and care; a manifest and witness place; a
collective work
which articulates the engineering specific to the shipyard and the multiple
echoes that
such a project questions and requires: legal formalizations, artistic
translations, driving
the force of the idea itself and its realization.
The design of the space is based on the idea of modularity which allows us to
choose
the quantity, size, type, and color of modules we want to use in a location.
All modules are designed according to standard dimensions making them easily
transportable.
Throughout the presentation, I will be showing multiple configurations of unit
chains
and their colors. The unit chains are built in a way for the visitors to
instantly delve
into our informational/exhibition area through which they will learn about the
mediterranean situation, Open Arms and K-alma’s work as well as our work
with the
project.
They will then go into a transitional area through which they will
reach our
shop where they can buy our products while being offered a background story
about
who made them, as well as the materials and concept of each.
