Snowfall of Salt
The city of La Rochelle and its surroundings are steeped in history and inspire the imagination. As you stroll along the seafront, your eye is drawn to the strange iron objects that emerge from the water to make oysters.
The structures seem mystically overgrown with algae and other vegetation. Then the eye turns to larger structures rising out of the water - war bunkers. They are part of history, surrounded by marine vegetation. The bunkers protruding from the sea resemble trenches, bunkers and abandoned houses in Lithuanian forests.
On La Rochelle's waterfront, people sunbathe and climb on these cement structures, finding new uses for them. Nature slowly assimilates them. This process manifests itself in hybrid ecology, where people, buildings and plants coexist in dependence on one another. What might these structures become in the future?
