participative fresco
creation of a mural painting with local residents
neighbourhoods and the artist Rister
As part of a project with the Antin residence, we were asked to work with the Jacques Brel social centre to create a fresco. The theme of the fresco is life, and it was created by the artist Rister on the wall opposite the social centre in the Antin residence.
A number of workshops were held before the fresco was painted, to consolidate the participatory and inclusive nature of the project. Firstly, the children were able to learn about Rister's work and imagine the motifs for the future fresco, drawing inspiration from his world. They were also able to learn how to use aerosols, before putting this knowledge into practice the following week on the wall of the Antin residence.
At the same time, the installations from our former ‘Hanging Garden’ project were renovated by our team with artist Ilona Mikneviciute to help embellish the newly-decorated square.

A l'occasion de la Semaine d'éducation et d'actions contre le racisme et l'antisémitisme, nous avons été sollicités pour accompagner l’espace Nelson Mandela dans un projet de réalisation d’une fresque, pour thème la lutte contre toutes les formes de discriminations.
Plusieurs actions de sensibilisation ont été menées en amont pour amorcer le projet : l’une, sous la forme d’un débat, a permis de faire émerger une liste de mots-clés autour de la thématique de la lutte contre les discriminations.
Dans un second temps, un atelier intergénérationnel a été organisé en pied d’immeuble afin de proposer aux habitant·es une initiation au graphisme.
Enfin, une fresque a été réalisée avec Sifat Quasi, artiste autodidacte née en 1987 à Dacca.
