Bamboo Lover

The exhibition has been designed with the idea of taking the visitor on a journey through the career of the French artist, so the rooms of the Palau have been divided into themes, phases, each an experience in which to travel back in time and understand the why behind Laurent Lo’s creations. And like all journeys, we must start at the beginning. Origin Room is a time capsule, a room full of treasures; personal objects that narrate the artist’s travels since he left in 2004 for Delhi, Thailand, Vietnam and Laos. His passion, love and the sensuality he found in plant material can be seen in Love Room. Shibari Room initiates a conversation around the similes found between the erotic tensions of the Japanese style of bondage and the equal tensions in the floating moviles. Attempts to understand and find universal balance in Galactic Room; to feel the wind, the sea, the matter in Wind Room. In Sister’s Room we will be in search of inspiration in flexibility and lightness, in the strength of the fragile; get invited to contemplate the very own origins of our world in Big Bang Room. Finally the tour ends in a meditative exercise, Meditation Room, which together with the last hall, Lo’s Room, revisit, through poetry and meditation, the artist’s journey and his intrapersonal relationship with his creations.
