"If one man can be regarded as waste, a hundred thousand men are all a bunch of garbage."
Simone de Beauvoir
"Everyone has the right to move freely and choose his residence within a State."
Article 13 of Human Rights, United Nations

Roaming can be experienced in many ways, that of poverty, madness, natural disasters and individual revolts. From forced nomadicity to desired and assumed nomadicity an interest remains in this research. As a principle of life, encounter is done through sharing food, experiences and the location.

One has to exceed sedentary modes of living. There is desire to return to a sense of community.

The project works with its context, the generic tree, a pole, a streetlight where the blue flag of freedom could be hanged. These canvas, will be superimposed to create screens for privacy, to provide shade or shelter from wind and rain.
