"Our role as artists is always to search for the light," says French artist JR ( previously) about the second act of his Retour à la Caverne project. "We know this much: You don't chase away the darkness with more darkness. You chase it away with light, however tiny."

The work he's referring to, though, is far from tiny. Cloaking Paris's Palais Garnier while the building is under construction, Retour à la Caverne is an enormous trompe l'oeil facade, the first part of which depicts a cave carved into the grand structure that houses the opera. Illuminated at the center, the temporary piece highlights the physical and metaphorical interactions between light and dark. Broken into two acts like an opera libretto, the work references Plato's allegory that emerging from the depths of the cave, and from darkness, brings knowledge.

"Act I" debuted earlier this fall with four nights of projected works, while the second part was held on November 12. "Back in September, we invited you to step out of the cave to go and explore. This time, we're inviting you back inside the cave," JR said while introducing the work. Whereas "Act I" portrays the cavern gouged into the center of the building, "Act II" switches perspectives, placing the viewers entirely inside the space.

Titled " Chiroptera," the performance featured choreography by Damien Jalet and music by Thomas Bangalter. More than 150 dancers appeared through an elevated seven-story scaffolding after an eerie introduction by ballerina Amandine Albisson, who appeared to open the cave, causing a plummet into darkness. As with many of JR's works, the artist asked the crowd to participate by using headlamps and their phones to illuminate the remainder of the performance, revealing the ways light can emerge from collective action.

Watch the full performance below, and find more from JR on Instagram.

Artist and architect Ulf Mejergren ( previously) continues his interest in cozy, outdoor constructions with a new series titled Farm Art. Collaborating with farmer Robert Pettersson, Mejergren built several site-specific structures from materials found around Pettersson's property in Grödinge, Sweden.

For "Pine Bark Hut," the pair layered thick, gnarly wood into a slender cabin camouflaged between two trees, a space first used for hunting and then storing tools. Similarly, "Root Hut" entwines gathered branches with the existing roots to create a small, sand pit enclosure nestled beneath the forest, while the circular "Moss Hut" stands 4.5 meters tall among the trees. The latter work "stems from the farmers' hunting interest," Mejergren writes. "For many years, he has put food at certain points in the forests so wild boars come to feed there. The problem is they are like bulldozers in the forests, looking for insects and roots in the soil, so they have dug up moss from the forest floor and left them scattered in big droves." Cloaked in the remaining lichen, the structure is a disguised refuge among the wild landscape.

Other works in Farm Art are more aesthetically driven, like the vivid "Sunset." Made of dandelion heads at full bloom, the spherical form appears to glow in a field of weeds and wildflowers. Find the full series on Mejergren's site and Instagram.
