Let's continue our series on contemporary art installations by drawing the Olympic Vasque.

The monumental vasque was designed by Matthieu Lehanneur and developed in collaboration with EDF. During the day the vasque floats above water in the Tuileries before arising 60m above the ground at night fall (around 21h30).

Let's watch this spectacular moment and draw the illuminated cauldron in the sky.

The magical flame is created by a mist of water atomised at high pressure and lit by projectors, powered 100% by electricity and totally ecological!

Please bring your sketchbooks and own art materials and maybe a foldable chair or stool for your own comfort.

We can share our drawings afterwards over drinks nearby.
