The Washhouse, Gentilly 2007

 

Gentilly,

on the edge of the ring road

from hygiene to culture

the public baths (washhouse and drying room)

are looking for an electric, luminous future.

Porte de Gentilly, at the crossroads of the residents’ stories, life.

The movement of the city, the fate of its residents,

the world a world.

The public baths, a little hint of music

The washhouse, words in the air

The drying room, as if nothing

all that to listen to the heart of the neighbours

15, whom I met by following the thread of conversation

they wash their hands,

they play shadow puppets,

these anonymous living souls entrust you with a little of us.
