Sea cucumber

When I arrived in Couze, I was intrigued by this washhouse covered with corrugated iron. This seemed very surprising to me because the surrounding roofs are covered with tiles... I then learned that a restoration project plans to replace this iron with terracotta. However, the sheet metal is beautiful! The Australian architect Glenn Murcutt built such beautiful houses out of sheet metal... I want to use this roof to put a shape on it, like a mollusk made of corrugated sheets.

Sculpture installed on the roof of the Couze & Saint-Front washhouse.
