Group show
From February 29 to March 10 2024
Opening on February 29 starting from 6pm
The Nature Forte gallery is once again joining forces with the Gravity festival and launching a new exhibition.
Gravity, the first graffiti festival in the world on the theme of the environment. Its aim is to make the public aware of the gravity of the current ecological situation.
The project Casqu’on attends ?! was born when we collected a large quantity of headphones from a Parisian cultural institution intended to be destructed.
Non-functional and mostly broken, anchored in hip-hop culture, we know the importance this object has for artists and decide to recycle them into works of art.
Around sixty headphones are sent to 60 artists.
Each artist approached for the project receives a wooden board measuring 30cm by 30cm and a headphone as it is. He is given carte blanche to make it a unique object according to his sensitivity and what this object evokes for him.
The goal of this project: to raise awareness about recycling and spread the message of the festival which is the need to become aware of the gravity of the ecological situation.
So, CASQU’ON ATTEND ?!
