Abstract (English)Evoking a series of Land Art related interventions inspired by a multimedia installation created in 1992, Perron and Woodrow consider water according to characteristics and themes inherent to its nature: water as an element, medium and cultural phenomenon (aquaculture); the initiatory experience (water-confidence); nomadism, wave and current, drifting, fluidity, etc. Includes essays by collaborators, several quotations from female authors, visual documentation of the artists' projects and diagrams. Some quoted passages in French only. Brief biographical notes. 10 bibl. ref.
