EMERALD HILL AT DOMAINE DE BOISBUCHET

WORKSHOP “WHEN THE CLOUD MEET THE SUN”

JULY 05TH – JULY 11TH 2026

Led by Marine Col, this workshop welcomed five students from Emerald Hill School, China, to explore the vegetation of the Charente region through observation, collection, and material experimentation.

Local plants were gathered and investigated through drawing, changes of scale, cyanotype printing, and paper sculpture.The workshop also introduced the principles of map composition and examined the needs of the site during periods of extreme heat, considering the role of vegetation in creating a more resilient landscape. By combining field research with hands-on making, it encouraged new ways of observing and representing the local environment.
