Parcours Urbain 1,2,3 soleil Ecole Le Pigeonnier

Parcours Urbain 1,2,3 soleil [1,2,3 soleil Urban Trail] by Le Pigeonnier primary school

A mains levées [Freehands] EXHIBITION, 18 to 29 May
preview Tuesday 17 May at 18:00 in front of the Médiathèque [media library]

The hand is the second face of the identity. Based on this idea, we led a drawing workshop in which every child looked at and studied her own hand or the hand of the next person.
Starting with a basic A4 format, the drawings are gradually enlarged until they are spread out on the glazed surface of the Médiathèque [media library] in Digne.
Produced by Najat Baghdadi, Habiba Bouzenada, Lamia Chalal, Valérie Hermellin, Amaria Sifi and Caroline Collomb for the Le Pigeonnier community centre, by Laurie Honoré for the Musée Gassendi, and by Didier Petit, echoing his exhibition in the CAIRN Art Centre

 

1, 2, 3 soleil PARCOURS URBAIN [Urban Trail] in Digne’s old town centre

In Digne’s old town centre, there are many empty windows of abandoned shops. We decided to occupy these unoccupied shop windows with a class from Le Pigeonnier primary school. Taking the theme of the well-known children’s game, “1, 2, 3 soleil” [“1, 2, 3, sun” or “1, 2, 3, red light”], the pupils posed alone and in two’s and three’s or more, and drew their outlines. These silhouettes were then transferred, enlarged, and cut up on a backed white adhesive material on the window glass. These little characters played with their sizes, their shadows and their transparency on an urban trail to be discovered from 18 May 2016.
Workshop conducted by Didier Petit to echo his exhibition in the CAIRN Art Centre, with classes of Alexis Costechareyre in the Pigeonnier-Barbejas primary school, and Laurie Honoré for the Musée Gassendi

A big thank you to everyone for their participation
