"Under our feet, in our hands"
residency of the artist Camille Bosqué at the Orhan Ger reception center for adults with disabilities
For the 2024/2025 season, the Seine-Saint-Denis Department has implemented three cultural and artistic programs for people with disabilities supported in local medical and social facilities. The objectives of these programs are to promote equal access for people with disabilities to artistic and cultural offerings, to encourage the participation of people with disabilities in artistic and cultural projects, and to promote mutual understanding of the artistic and cultural field among professionals in the artistic and cultural field.
Residents of the Orhan Ger home benefited from one of these programs in 2024-2025. For five months, artist Camille Bosqué led a weekly workshop at the Orhan Ger home. During these meetings, participants learned about the art of ceramics, exploring the different stages of working with clay, from creating tableware to musical instruments. This project concluded with a large banquet on May 27, where everyone enjoyed the meal in the bowls they had crafted. All of the works produced were then presented at an exhibition at the Noisy-le-Sec Conservatory.
love as a legacy
participatory project proposed by Camille Lévêque at the retirement home in Romainville and the Ephad des 4 saisons in Bagnolet
For five months, and with three different groups, artist Camille Lévêque attempted to address this universal question. Familial, friendly, platonic, patriotic, forbidden: all forms of love were welcomed and recounted.
This project, led by Camille Lévêque as part of a residency led by Art en Partage, gave birth to a fanzine.
It includes shots taken at the retirement home, the two embroidered tablecloths as common supports, texts in exquisite corpses, fragments, questions left open.
This work was carried out with the children of the Nelson Mandela Social Centre, the residents of the Les Quatre Saisons EHPAD and the members of the Romainville retirement home.
the 4 seasons
micro-conferences on art history and artistic practice workshops around
color intended for seniors
The ‘Art in 4 Seasons’ project was based around a series of workshops combining art history and artistic practices. The aim of the cycle was to maintain residents' access to culture through artistic practice, using art as a means of preventing loss of autonomy.
The 2-hour workshops, led each time by 2 speakers (an art historian and a visual artist), were divided into two parts: a short lecture in images dedicated to the discovery of a colour approached through the history of art, followed by an artistic practice workshop linked to the colour approached.
Much more than the final result, the practical workshop was intended to be a privileged opportunity to experiment with the creative process and the pleasure it can generate.
care
participatory artistic project led by three artists: Ilona Mikneviciute, Olivier Renouf & Denis Darzacq , exhibition at 6B
CARE is a participatory art project initiated in January 2021 by 3 artists: Ilona Mikneviciute, Olivier Renouf and Denis Darzacq. The project was carried out with the association Art en partage in partnership with the Romainville CCAS. The aim was to co-construct with the participants (a group of RSA recipients and the team from the Centre communal d'action sociale that supports them) a cultural and artistic journey based on a distanced interpretation of the expressions of language arising from the COVID crisis. Each ‘chapter’ of this journey was punctuated by visual, audio, physical, textual and plastic workshops, as well as time devoted to encounters with works of art in the form of visits to exhibitions and performances.
