The 'Faire le vide' installation at Poisson Blanc Regional Park represents an innovative fusion of public art and landscape intervention. This project has a striking and harmonious presence on a remote island that is accessible only by watercraft. Its dual nature
Designed through collaboration between artist-architect Luca Fortin and Atelier mock/up, the wooden cubic structure offers a deliberate contrast between its geometric exterior and fluid interior spaces. Its aesthetic sensibilities are achieved through advanced digital fabrication techniques applied to local cedar materials. The 'Faire le vide' project's remote location and manual installation process — all components had to be transported by boat and assembled without heavy machinery — demonstrate a thoughtful approach to minimizing environmental impact while maximizing experiential value for visitors of Poisson Blanc Regional Park.
