Demolition (2021)

Alliance Française Vancouver has been at the 6161 Cambie Street location for over five decades. In summer 2021, the building was demolished to give way to a brand-new innovative, eco aware and community-friendly space.

To commemorate the heritage of this location Thomas Nugent was commissioned to perform a symbolic goodbye to its walls. Various rooms of the building were photographed,  and the processed film was then destroyed with focused Laser light. Scattering the light in various rooms of the vacated Alliance Francaise building.
