Chez nous
in collaboration with Sébastien Worsnip, Zoe Worsnip and Clara Echenberg Worsnip

After I cut four large squares from a roll of paper, my husband and two daughters joined me, each of us folding, unfolding, cutting and stapling one of the squares into our own house. With the individual houses placed over our heads, we performed several actions: Clara crouched to sitting position so that she disappeared inside of her house; I lit several cigarettes, burnt a “chimney” hole in the roof, sprayed water from the inside and then wrapped the water soaked paper around me; Zoe built several small paper houses that she accumulated at her feet; Sebastien painted the inside of the his house black.
