Caen, Normandy

19 — 23 September 2022

This five-day workshop explored how art can energize urban spaces, linking physical surroundings with social and environmental context. Participants imagined works integrated into the city before its construction, a “99% artistic” approach.

Students explored the Caen peninsula’s unurbanized spaces to freely create artworks potentially suited for future urban developments.
Participants included: Elio Baudouin, Lulian Bogdan, Tom Boutteaud, Valentin Deveaux, Lou Escudié, Zoé Grignon, Thea Hatton, Kim Doyeon, Rose Kurczewski, Lee Jihyun, Justine Leonard, Orlane Lormel, Maelys Magula, Eliott Magar, Elisa Magdelinat, Romane Mony, Thomas Quaisse, Axel-Miguel Rannou, Nemo Richard Roussel, Rose Cron, Léonie Yvon.
