‘WE WIELS’ – a contraction between “we will see” and “we will” – highlights the link between the discovery by sight of new forms and things and the actions that we take for the future. Young people will explore contemporary art works together with elders. Do the art pieces stir up emotions or memories? What causes is this artist committed to? Does this particular cause seem just ? What if the youths were given the means to create a work of art: what particular cause would they defend? And how? The project will provide time, space and opportunity to talk about all this. The young people of WE WIELS (including children and youths who dropped out of school and unaccompanied minors) will find a common cause and commit themselves artistically for it with the complicity of Forest’s senior citizens. The result will be revealed in the summer of 2023 during the Park Poetik festival. WE WILL SEE…
The project is coordinated by WIELS ASBL
