CLARA CHEVREL

LOBBY BOY

“The Lobby Boy watches the world go by. He observes hurried departures, late arrivals, suitcases coming in, and stories leaving. He never leaves the hotel, yet travels through its guests—for the only one who never travels is the one who welcomes every journey.

From this universe, I transformed the hotel’s emblematic objects (pillows, duvets, armchairs, room keys) by blending them with the Lobby Boy’s wardrobe.

Here, travel is approached as an indirect experience, lived through others, the spaces, and the stories that pass through the Nolinski Hotel.”
