At the bend in the river, observe creatures born from the combination of plastic bottles and tropical colors carried by the zephyr, a gentle, warm west wind… Who knows what nature has in store for us, we who are already permeated with microplastics?

Guided Tour

Summer 2026, date to be confirmed
Super Aqua Club de Pointe-Calumet

The artists invite the public to a guided tour just before the aquatic park opens to discover an astonishing transformation of the creatures they have been bringing to the area for several years, in search of encounters and landscapes.

Participants will be able to discover the creatures in their habitat, the trees and surrounding flora, with exclusive access to the Zephyr River and its backstage area, accompanied by the artists and their collaborator Paule Mackrous, art historian and arborist.
