Au-dessus du gazon, le brouillard is situated in the former Flon valley, now drained and dried out. It bears witness to the unseen water all around us. Beside visible bodies of water such as the lake, and hidden waterways such as canalized rivers, we are surrounded by other sources of water. Mist-catchers trap water in their nets, revealing its presence in the air.

This water is fed into newly created wetlands around the edge of the sports fields: places where nature has traditionally been tightly controlled or completely excluded, but that now form part of an unbroken green corridor stretching all the way to Lake Geneva. Au-dessus du gazon, le brouillard offers a new route to the lake, building on existing sports facilities along Lausanne’s waterfront. Plants, animals and humans now cohabit the spaces between the sports fields, transforming them into places to meet, socialize and take a leisurely stroll.
