The invisible city
During this week, we will set out to explore the mysterious and invisible places hidden throughout Brussels and its surroundings. In the city, as we walk through the streets, we don’t always imagine the worlds concealed behind building façades: what happens there? We will step through the doors of little-known and fascinating places that hold secrets of the past, sometimes even beneath our feet.
We will dive into the forgotten stories of the city we live in.
Like true explorers, we will embark on an adventure, documenting our discoveries with photos and drawings in an atlas. Finally, this investigation will also be an opportunity to learn to see the little lives that exist right before our eyes but often go unnoticed…

Mathilde is a young artist who is pretty much on her way to obtaining her diploma and aggregate at the ERG (école de recherche graphique). Her practice consists of making "sculptural paintings", using mainly chiselled elements. She is particularly interested in our relationship to life and landscape. In her works, through fragile assemblages, a layering of subtle signs appears, mixing the organic with the artificial and forming a gateway to imaginary worlds not necessarily at odds with the real.
Elias Sanhaji studied at the Ecole de Recherche Graphique in Brussels, where he is currently completing his Masters. Since childhood, he has been fascinated by huts and camps as well as large-scale urban construction projects. In recent years, through his artistic practice, he has been trying to draw attention to current ecological issues and to help us rebuild a sensitive relationship with what lives around us, with a world that sometimes seems far away from us when we live in the city.
