The « Shared Landscapes » project, a collaboration between the Comines-Warneton Cultural Center and Atelier 2 of Villeneuve d’Ascq, offered the youth of the Tous Égaux Sport association a unique opportunity to explore their inner world. The initial phase involved creating a 'Chinese portrait' based on the symbolic question: 'If I were a landscape, I would be...'
This playful approach allowed participants to express their personality, preferences, and emotions creatively. Subsequently, each young person selected a landscape photograph that resonated with their current mood or temperament, highlighting the profound connection between our emotional states and the perception of landscapes.
The final stage of this workshop involved creating a personal collage. By combining landscape images, words, texts, and various visual elements, the young participants produced a unique composition, materializing their 'inner landscape'.
This experience proved to be a wonderful artistic adventure, fostering self-expression, stimulating imagination, and encouraging sharing among the participants.
