The work on illuminations and sounds installed in the city of Chartres is meant to reflect the city's contemporary, attractive cultural identity.

The area of the project is vast; the work is enhanced by the very surroundings provided by the historic city for the illumination systems and by the opportunity it gives to an artist for creating an overarching work comprising separate elements, applying a coherent concept of an original work on a city-wide scale.

This composition is based on thinking around the plastic arts, and founded on work on the city's history and heritage. It aims to create a different relationship, offering the public a new way of looking at the city.
