Kimsooja - To Breathe
Station de métro Mairie de Saint-Ouen
Under Jérôme Sans' curation, the artist Kimsooja was commissioned to design the heart of the new Mairie de Saint Ouen metro station.
On the glass walls that encircle the void of the exchange hall overlooking the metro tracks, the rays of light break down into multiple spectrums of colour, acting like a "three-dimensional painting" that transforms the space. Every moment becomes a unique experience.
