Third-Ikebana

Abstract

The exposition unpacks Vincent Roumagnac's "Third-Ikebana" series as an example of his theatre redirecting research practice. By staging traditional Ikebana arrangements using urban weeds, the project subverts conventional hierarchies of quality and value within scenographic, urban, and social contexts. The series thereby interrogates dominant aesthetic norms and their internalised distribution of agency, inviting a critical reevaluation of what constitutes value in both performance and urban environmental experience. Two modes of navigation are offered: a graphic version designed for computer screens, emphasizing the experiential dimension of the exposition, and a text-based format optimized for mobile reading, presented in a conventional article layout.
