J'ai souvent eu l'impression de mener ici une vie quasi monacale, rythmée par le travail dès les premières heures, au petit déjeuner, les conciliabules au sein des chapelles, les repas pris en commun (qui m'ont d'ailleurs fait penser, à l'occasion, aux habitudes épicuriennes des cloîtres de la Renaissance), les longs débats, les méditations vespérales sur les questions les plus pressantes et les exercices spirituels nécessaires pour observer une tolérance presque ascétique.
I often had the impression to have chosen here something like a monastic way of life whose timetable was divided between early—morning working breakfasts, confabulations at the oratory tables, communal refectories (which made me think, sometimes, of the epicurean habits of the convents in the Renaissance times), lengthy debates, evening meditations on the most pressing concerns and spiritual exercises to keep alive an almost ascetic tolerance.
Ces conciliabules nocturnes finissaient en hallucinations visqueuses et cotonneuses. Des images du conflit permanent entre le monde où vivent actuellement les Winnipegois et celui où ils projettent leur avenir.
These nocturnal confabulations quickly spun out into the viscous and cottony hallucinations you see here, depictions of the war constantly waged in this city between the two worlds in which Winnipeggers live now and which they expect to inhabit in the future.
