Installation artist Laurent Gongora’s Les Cascadeurs<\/em>\u00a0\u201credraws\u201d the shape of a waterfall in France\u2019s mountainous Massif Central region. To do this, he attached 24 geometric metal elements to the rock behind the Cascade de Vaucoux that together forms an eight-meter-high diamond that diverts the torrent. The project\u00a0features\u00a0horizontal bars beneath each peak that were designed for adventurous wildlife to have some respite from the falling water. “There is a small wooden perch under each roof, in case a ‘stunt bird’ would like to come and shelter,” Gongora explained.\u00a0(source<\/a>).<\/p>\n [easy-share buttons=”facebook,twitter,linkedin,mail” counters=0 native=”no” image=https:\/\/live-ehc-english-ucsb-edu-v01.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/yusuke-asai-waf-1.jpg url=https:\/\/live-ehc-english-ucsb-edu-v01.pantheonsite.io\/?p=5969 facebook_text=Share twitter_text=Tweet\u00a0linkedin_text=Link text=”Artist Laurent Gongora’s Waterfall Art, Les Cascadeurs”]<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/div> Installation artist Laurent Gongora had the idea of \u201credrawing\u201d the shape of a waterfall in France\u2019s mountainous Massif Central region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":5970,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5969","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-visual-arts"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5969"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5969"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5969\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18401,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5969\/revisions\/18401"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/5970"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5969"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5969"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ehc.english.ucsb.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5969"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"0laurentgongoracascadeurs5\"](\"https:\/\/live-ehc-english-ucsb-edu-v01.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/0laurentgongoracascadeurs5.jpg\")
