    2017

Between the months of April and June 2017, Angélique Buisson worked with the CE1 and CP/CM1 classes of the École Lamartine in Saint-Michel-sur-Orge. By using different graphic and plastic media (drawing, writing, découpage…), the children invented a range of signs for an alphabet featuring gestures and movements. Using this language, they wrote out the scores for a series of movements, transcribing a choreography that can be performed. Tuesday, 6 June, the children stage a show at the school featuring the results of the research, experiments, and artworks that grew out of the workshops.
