A round, dark room, the walls of which parade animated maps, created from statistical data on population movements in the world and their main causes. Matter is gross, yet you immerse yourself in "Exit", rocked during forty-five minutes by hypnotic images projected in an arc over 7 meters high. Meeting with Hervé Chandès, director of the Cartier Foundation, the project originally presented in 2008 as part of the Homeland exhibition and reissued this winter at Palais de Tokyo echoing the COP21.
On hearing the term "homeland" in a café, in 2005. I wondered what that concept meant in our world today, and I talked to Raymond Depardon, son of peasants working on the origins, roots, landscapes, and Paul Virilio, the son of immigrants who, conversely, studied the movement, speed, acceleration, urbanism. Both have agreed to consider a draft showing the displacement. Depardon wanted to give a voice to individuals, Virilio would show the numbers and trajectories. I contacted a group of American architects and researcher François Gemenne I had read an interview in Libération, was aware of technological tools to manage the flow of streams. Everyone was scolded, but the clashes and uncertainties are good for the viewer does not have access to only one thought. The project was split into two, Depardon made a film from testimonies Giving voice. But Palais de Tokyo, there was no room for any show.
