Ce prototype de banc a été conçu pour symboliser les tensions et affrontements lors des manifestations contemporaines entre manifestants et forces de l’ordre. Ce projet a vu le jour après ma participation à la manifestation des Gilets jaunes du 8 décembre 2018, où j’ai été à la fois témoin et acteur des violences qui surgissent dans ces moments de confrontation. Il est une proposition d’inversion des rapports de forces et de contrôle établis par l’urbanisme sur les populations.

This prototype bench was designed to capture the tensions and clashes during contemporary protests between demonstrators and law enforcement. The concept for this project emerged after my participation in the Yellow Vests protest on December 8, 2018, where I witnessed the violence that can erupt in such moments. It serves as a proposal to challenge the power dynamics and control imposed by urban planning over people.
