These works make up the triptych “Parcours degraft”. This is a project launched as part of the Coop’IP approach, a cooperation between three local HLM organizations in 2017. The theme of these frescoes is women in the public space. They aim to offer another vision of the Belletontaine district. They must promote it with its inhabitants.
“This helps to change the image of the neighborhood as well as to fight against the feeling of abandonment of the inhabitants. The objective of the project is to associate the inhabitants by realizing them from their district and to enhance the image of the district beyond its borders”, explains the social landlord Toulouse Métropole Habitat, in the columns ofActu.fr.
