Marseille-based artist Gaëlle Villedary developed ‘Tapis Rouge!’, a
grass carpet installation for the french town Jaujac. The landscape
piece is comprised of 168 rollers of greenery spanning approximately
1,400 feet with a weight of 3.5 tones, tracing pedestrian avenues into
the city center.
The entirely bio-formed work was created with the intention to connect inhabitants of the village with the surrounding valley. The work was commissioned to help foster a celebratory mood for the 10th anniversary of the village’s arts and nature trail programs.
