In 2024, mOst ran a series of community arts residencies in Argenteuil, Bagnolet, and Nanterre, inviting Julie Rochereau, Virginie Gouband, Marie Mendes, and Saïda Essafiry to co-create with residents: digital video and Super 8, digital and film photography, mapping, sound work, and drawing.
In Argenteuil, the “Éclats de lumière” workshop with Virginie Gouband invited participants to explore their territory through light: following how the landscape changes over the day, then acting on it with different devices. Each territory made a collective film out of it.
With Saïda Essafiry, the children and young people made a hybrid, participatory mural, fed by collective writing, photographs, drawings and sound interviews. “City des bulles” is the public presentation of it all: films and an exhibition in several places.
