What does it mean to leave a trace of yourself in the city? Curator Laure Raibaut and artist Aktin Dreiglo invite you to a talk and workshop exploring the human figure in French street art. From prehistoric silhouettes to urban portraits, discover how artists like JR, Jeff Aerosol, and Ernest Pignon-Ernest use the body as a visual declaration. After the talk, take part in a stencil workshop and experiment with creating your own street art.
