In 1993, the French sculptor and designer Odile Mir created La Nef Solaire. Located in the public space, near Avignon, in the South of France, the monumental work quickly established itself as an emblematic and mysterious monument, drawing several thousands of visitors each year. Coming straight out of the artist's mind (and with the help of the astronomer Denis Savoie), this exceptional work of art was to become the largest sundial in the world. Like the faces of a modern pyramid, the large sails of white concrete, rising up to seventeen meters, cast the shadows of the Sun and Moon, and give passers-by the solar time.
