"Terra Incognita" by Jean-Louis Le Tacon, scan from the VideoFest ‘92 program booklet.

An experimental observation of sculptoral work. In Parc de la Courneuve, various sculptors work on the land: Mainolfi, Kenny, Clément and Pontoreau. The park turns into a screen onto which they project their phantasies. In the course of time, approaching and working on this “unknown piece of land" transforms it into a phantasy landscape of the artists. The process that is being observed comprises the removal of earth, its forming and the return of the material that has become sculpture to its original place.
