Presentation
Join a creative workshop combining reflection and practice! Explore your relationship with plastic waste, then learn weaving to transform recovered materials into unique, sensitive and committed creations.
What if your emotions and your waste could become the raw material for creation? Come reinvent your connection to the environment through a sensitive and engaging artistic experience.
As part of the Biodiversity 2026 exhibition, the Tourist Office invites you to participate in an immersive workshop led by Ophélie, an art mediator. You will discover a new way of looking at recycled materials by transforming them into genuine mediums of expression.
A workshop in three parts:
- A discussion to explore the concept of waste and broaden your perspective.
- An introduction to traditional weaving on a simple and accessible individual loom.
- The creation of a textile piece from recycled plastics, which you will take home with you.
The benefits of the experience:
- A creative approach that combines ecological reflection and artistic practice.
- Open to everyone aged 15 and over, with no prior experience required.
- A group sharing session, the "Boat of Emotions," to express and compare your feelings.
