with this post i’m seeking to capture the versalitity of being a cultural mediator and the essence of community-building through creative practice 🌹 i‘m hoping to post more examples, practices and experiences with art & artists changing the way we think & exist on this account - in Luxembourg and abroad! i also want to emphasise how art can help us uncover cultural and social patterns and bring marginalised voices and stories to the forefront
welcome if you‘re down for the ride ✨

Inspired by the ‚Table de @stay_fou ’ painting, I wanted to separately illustrate the symbols behind it. So I painted 10 mini square canvas with oil colours and oil pastels, then turned them into Art prints.
Symbols:
1. BULLE/BULLI: my cat, my son, but also to represent our love of animals
2. DRAGONFLY x SCORPIO: dragonfly is a symbol of transformation (to represent our ever-evolving friendship), the scorpio is iconic cause one of our members had an encounter with one in Italy and it represents holiday moments
3. POMEGRANATE: symbol of good luck and prosperity for all our members
4. WATERMELON: free palestine.
5. FLAMINGO: our mascot since high school
6. JOKER: it doesn‘t say stay fou for nothing!
7. BEERPONG: enjoyment
8. WATERBOTTLE: stay hydrated, especially when it‘s the biggest, most put there green watterbottle Luk could find
9. BUTTERFLY: new beginnings
10. FLOWER: L‘hellébore ou l‘herbe des fous.
