Le Signal, built in 1967 in Soulac-sur-Mer, in France, is under threat from erosion. On 8th December 2014, an municipal order obliged all the residents to permanently evacuate their apartments. Once abandoned, the building was vandalised. Since December 2014, my work on Le Signal has incorporated several installations, drawing inspiration from successive events, scientific data collected and the building’s progressive deterioration. This project will end with the destruction of Le Signal, in 2022.
