Frontier

Frontier is a sight specific outdoor sculpture of a suspended upside down boat containing floating lanterns. Its placement high above a forgotten corner of the city incites the fantasy of being here and everywhere at the same time. During the day, the floating boat will invite daydreamers to linger underneath, while at night the vessel will light up to welcome passersby to wonder in a space that is usually out of bounds.

In the hidden recesses of the Quartier des Spectacles, lost in the shadows of the projectors, Dufault Alley becomes a suspended landscape between reality and imagination. Halfway between a floating island and a surrealist chandelier, Pavitra Wickramasinghe’s suspended garden illuminates the asphalt with a poetic interplay of light and shadows. A reminder of the river’s presence within the city.
