Casqu'on attend? exhibition: street artists recycle headphones into works of art, our photos

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.

Ahead of its forthcoming return 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 scrap heap, 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 pair of headphones as they were. Through this artistic project, which aims to raise awareness of recycling, urban artists are once again taking action for the planet.
