L'acte d'habiter
Between a poetic essay and a travel diary, L’acte d’habiter explores what it means today to 'inhabit' a heritage. Eight artists engage with Art Nouveau sites in Oradea, Aveiro, Nancy, Mons, and Brussels. By living and creating in these spaces, they reactivate an architectural memory that the film approaches as living matter, crossed by utopias and fractures, to further question our present.
