Urban art mobilizes for the planet. From February 29 to March 10, 2024, the Parisian gallery Nature Forte opens its doors to the free exhibition "Casqu'on attend?". For this event, some sixty street artists transform audio headsets destined for the garbage dump into works of art.

Every spring, for the past three editions, the Gravity Festival has taken over the green setting of the Fondation GoodPlanet in Paris to offer street art enthusiasts an artistic and committed event. Described as the first urban arts festival to serve the planet, Gravity is an opportunity to reflect on the future of our planet and the protection of the environment through a series of events centred around committed works on the theme of ecology.

Before returning to Paris for a new 4th edition, Gravity is launching a parallel project this winter. This was announced by the festival and Notorious Brand, an urban art production agency, on their social networks. Entitled"Casqu'on attend?", this free exhibition can be seen at the Nature Forte gallery, in the 10th arrondissement, from February 29 to March 10, 2024.

The idea? To entrust 60 urban artists with headphones destined for the garbage bin, so that they can recycle them and transform them into works of art. To create a unique object, each artist involved in the project was given a 30cm by 30cm plank of wood and a set of headphones as is. Through this artistic project, which aims to raise awareness of recycling, urban artists are once again mobilizing for the planet.

A total of 54 works are to be discovered on site, with as many different styles and techniques. The artists include Zosh & SNSA with their"Cracotte Dundee", certainly the most impressive work exhibited at the gallery.
