Artist Pierre Pulisciano was asked to imagine a sound project in the radiotherapy department. Through meetings with staff and patients, he learned that waiting times can be a source of anxiety and stress during what is known as the "patient journey". With this in mind, Pierre Pulisciano created a radio play - in the style of an audioguide - based solely on sound recordings and testimonies collected in the department.
Sillonner tells the geographical and medical story, explains each of the roles of the nursing staff and is made available to patients. Designed to guide, soothe and reassure, it is also a tribute to those who accompany them.
