Atelier YokYok weaves ethereal blue tunnels inside a medieval cloister garden
A monastic cloister garden may seem like no place for contemporary art, but Atelier YokYok’s recent art installation is evidence to the contrary. The Paris-based studio created the Les Voûtes Filantes (The Shooting Vaults), a series of arched string tunnels placed inside a 16th-century cloister garden at the St. Stephen’s Cathedral in Cahors, France. The see-through tunnels were installed overtop the existing pathways and woven out of taut electric-blue strings.
