During the festival, children can make their own mosaics from all kinds of things, like toys and trinkets that everyone has lying around.
There will be materials available for the children to choose from to form their own mosaic. The children can then choose whether to fill in a drawn silhouette or sort out the colors to create a more realistic image.
The panels will eventually form one colorful wall.
Ismaël Bils makes all kinds of works of art, mainly with recycled materials. He studies installation art at the KASK in Ghent and this workshop is part of his internship.
Years ago, Ismaël started making mosaics from all kinds of waste materials. He started with simple silhouettes, filled in with all kinds of colorful materials. First on plates and on the wall of his room. But because he enjoyed it so much, he finally decorated the entire garden wall of his house.
