Multicultural fresco

During the day, a city-wide trail of installations combining visual arts and new technologies is proposed. Accessible alone, with friends or family, this curious excursion is an invitation to dream with eyes wide open. Particular attention is given to welcoming the audience, thanks to the presence of a mediator, or contents and tools enabling visitors to discover the installations in a different way.

Mindsco, Guillaumit

Visual art & illustration | Collective & multicultural fresco with augmented reality

Mindsco is a monumental multicultural fresco in augmented reality. Created by Bordeaux-based illustrator and visual artist Guillaumit, the work was made possible thanks to the collaboration of 12 artists from Russia and Central Asia.

Supported by the Institut Français de Russie, the project brought together people from Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Russia from a distance in 2023 and 2024. Starting with Guillaumit‘s sketchbooks, the creative process aimed to encourage the emergence of individual narratives and the identification of shared cultures. The artist then added a touch of geometry to create the graphic universe of the fresco.

Artists involved in the project: Aleksandra Atroshenko ^RU, Anna Bakaeva ^UZ, Elizaveta Belova ^KG, Lana Bogdanovskaia ^RU, Karina Bukeeva ^KZ, Altynai Imanhodjaeva ^RU, Alina Kenzhebayeva ^KZ, Sofya Prozorovskaya ^RU, Aysha Taysumova ^RU, Olga Terekhova ^RU, Saiora Vassilova ^KZ, Dilmukhammed Ziyada ^KZ.

Mindsco is a collaborative creation by Guillaumit and the 12 artists who took part in the project. It was accompanied and produced by Electroni[k], in coproduction with the Institut Français and the French Embassy in the Russian Federation.
