This installation is a translation and synthesis of the perception of playgrounds in France and the Netherlands. This installation is a lexical translation of each action proposed to the child within the playground. This translation is written on red labels that remind us of the labels that employees of institutions create to specify a location or indicate an action related to the object on which they are stuck. (Illustration of a label from the DAE). Thus, these labels indicate actions to be performed in the playground. Three modules are represented in the form of silhouettes stuck

to the ground and serve as a support for the labels. These three modules are very often seen: slides, small houses, spring-loaded games, and a turnstile. The installation is delimite by a very small barrier, on which ‘‘Laws Rules Administrations’’ are continuously written. The visitor is invited to read the labels and follow a route indicated on the ground, after having read a red stop sign which reminds the general rules of good behaviour within the playground, as it is common to find particularly in France. The installation aimed to present a vision, that of its author, of the playground as a normalising structure of our and serve as a support for the labels. These three modules are very often seen:
