THE APPROACH OF
CREATION AND CITIZEN MEDIATION

The heart of the project lies in the creation of a photographic and sound series showcasing local actions in favor of the socio-ecological transition (TSÉ). It aims to mobilize local TSÉ actors from the Communauté des possibles de La Pointe de l'Île around an emerging common vision.


The local and participatory creative process of artist Alex Côté tells the story, in a multidisciplinary artistic and documentary approach, of the interdependence of various local actions from the spheres of community development, local industries, mobility, urban agriculture, among others.


Led by the organization L'Idylle arts vivants, the initiative is carried out in collaboration with the CDC de la Pointe and the support of the citizen organization Solon. It involves close collaboration between various stakeholders in the Pointe-aux-Trembles and Montreal East territories, including citizens, artists, entrepreneurs, industries
