Pro Ventus details
An alternative folding screen - “Un paravent, pour le vent“
Pro Ventus folded
Pro Ventus is the creation of an object in collaboration with natural rattan and its different working techniques: straightening, bending, drilling, gluing, assembling and tying. The object is a scuptural folding screen «for the wind» that lets the wind blow through it and create a sound. The vertical pieces are held to the frame by a nail, giving them great freedom of movement and a floating effect.
