About François:
Designer, builder and set designer, François Delarozière has never ceased to explore the world of theatre and the town. He is the founder and artistic director of the «Compagnie La Machine».
He has developed numerous projects not only in the realm of urban planning (Animals of the Square, the Great Elephant and the Sea world Carrousel on the Ile de Nantes, the Magical Menagerie of Sénart, etc.), but also in that of street shows (Long Ma Jing Shen, Mécaniques Savantes, Symphonie Mécanique, L’Expédition Végétale, Dîner des petites mécaniques.).
Creating living and monumental architectures is a mean to dream of the cities of tomorrow changing the way we look at those we live in today. The movement and its expression in public space can be interpreted as language, as a source of emotion. The work La Machine company develops in the public space is mainly about theatre, urbanism and architecture. It consists in accompanying the urban development of cities.
Each creation impulses its own process. The final result depends directly on what has emerged during that new collective and human adventure.
