Description: 

Accompanied by a camerawoman, we leave Garage 103 at 4:30pm to take a tour of Nice and the surrounding area by motorcycle: St Pancrace, Cimiez, Rimiez...I was driving fast, having a flight to Paris at 6:15pm, the young student equipped with a camera was taking shots at ground level (camera at arm’s length), above (perched on the foot rests, standing, filming above), left and right (moving the camera).

The tour lasted 20 minutes. I brought the camerawoman back to Garage 103 and returned to the gallery where Olivier Garcin had set up in the center dirt and stones forming a circle. I walked around this structure, then the front tire, made an intrusion into the circle. I put the BMW 850R motorcycle on a center stand, mounted the seat, walked the bike around off balance, turned on the warnings, turn signals, headlights, and flashed the headlights on the wall. I got off the bike, turned the motor back on and crossed the circle with the bike slowly.
