“...the hand and the architect...”

Edition 2024 - Seminar Lyon - « …la main et l’architecte… » 1.jpg

Yves Perret, Architecte, Poète

The hand: uncluttered fingers, blossoming sensitivity, possible delicacies, strength to grasp, support for counting, refinement of nerve endings, intelligence of gesture, moving projection of the intelligence of the heart...!

We'll be looking at how this place of combining thinking and doing imposes ecologically attentive architecture, different construction techniques, a gentler vision of things and shared creativity.

Biography:

I'm an architect-cantoner,

avant-garde Neanderthal,

Specialized generalist,

Concrete dreamer,

Left of the right hand,

Right of the left hand,

Reasoning - resonating,

I see a thousand possibilities....

...and build the ones I can.

...and...and...and I dare to proclaim and acknowledge that poetry is one of the energies of ecological mutation...
