A project aimed at people who live near or around the island of Noirmoutier. A territory located on the French Atlantic coast, two thirds of which is below the highest sea level. By using a system of graduation, this scenographic installation provides a visual reference of future sea level rise, allowing visitors to question the reality of this expanse and visualize the uncertain future of what lies before their eyes. Thus, this physical communication medium visually expresses the evolution of the landscapes, and makes the individual aware of the environmental issues facing this island.
