Lefuel The staircase connects three departments of the Louvre sculptures, paintings of the Northern School and art objects.
With lightness and elegance, Morellet has redesigned oculi and bays, creating The Spirit of stairs. He "amused to fragment and destabilize the panes to scrap a little rough, comparing them to their own image, taken with an old technique and the glassmakers valuable."
The exercise was difficult because he had to meet a number of constraints related to the building - like the old format and hardware glazing - while ensuring that they are still visible. Creating Morellet based on the superposition of the design inverted the existing grid, associated with the previous cutting. To make visible the old form in new, Morellet has differentiated the glasses, and has traditionally assembled with lead.
If this installation illuminates a new light on the structure, the dismantling of old glasses of central oculus has found the former perspective through the halls of Decorative Art. The artist wanted to leave her free, even change the choice of glass, not taking "to a setting symmetrical and identical on all the stairs," but prefer "adapt to each situation and enjoy the chance."
