Roques Installation / Atelier Faber
Every year, up to 80,000 hectares of agricultural land are artificialized in France, this represents 20 m2 of land per second. The 300 hectares of the Hortillonnages do not escape the pressure of urbanization and it has been whittled away despite the protection of the associations. The exhibit of the Faber workshop is entitled Roques which means a clod of earth in the Picard language. The exhibit alerts visitors to this phenomenon, which concerns all French countryside.
