In 2004, Jean-Luc Moulène notices a stalk of Paulownia growing through a crack in the asphalt in Paris, next to the Ministry of Economy, Finance and Industry building, which spans nos 121 to 135 rue de Bercy. This wild plant is enclosed by a security fence on both sides of the pavement. The experience begins on 26 November 2004 and ends in December 2010.
Jean-Luc Moulène uses photography as a tool for studying natural and cultural phenomena as they have been redefined by the development of industry, media and commerce.
