The ancient wharfs of Bercy Village are some of the most insta-worthy places in Paris. We must say that the open-air shopping mall often invites artists for crazy installations: Patricia Cunha’s balloons, Jordane Saget’s neon cloud, Fred Sapey-Triomphe LED carpet, have marked the spirits. This summer 2020, it is landscaper Audray Roy-Camille qui is invited by the center. She has decided to fill Paris sky with flowers from July 11 to October 11, 2020.
With her team, les Naturistes, she created garlands of flowers that will “dance above the cobblestones”. All in all, there will be 136 meters (446.19ft) of garlands of flowers that will be decorating the sky, to make you see life pink-colored glasses. It took 120 hours of creations to create the 2.600 flowers and 1.200 leaves to put color and joy in the sky on the occasion.
Audray Roy-Camille says: “For Bercy Village, this is a floral fusion I wishes to create, mixing Creole gardens, full of bright colors, and metropolitan flora, more delicate, and have it swing above passersby in a merry jungle for a promising summer”.
You just have to wear you best outfit, take your camera and head to Bercy Village. You can then make the best of your stroll to try one of the restaurant terraces, or go to the parc de Bercy just next door.
Please note that it's been over 4 years since our last visit, so the place and experience may have changed.
