All audiences

Duration: One-off performances until 7.30pm

Place: Tour à Plomb

The opening of the festival will feature a series of performances as an amuse-bouche: a musical reading by Aliette Griz and Sina Kienou, an editorial performance by Romane Armand, and Karma Kitchen, a participatory tasting session by Kaliane Méret.

In the run-up to the festival, writing workshops were organised with the Nativitas social restaurant, Fra Angelico secondary school and l’Autre lieu. Aliette Griz, a mediator for FAME, came to ask “What is the public?

The texts written by the participants will be read and presented at the opening of the festival, with Sina Kienou accompanying on Mandinka guitar.

At the same time, a fanzine of ‘recipes’ will be assembled and printed live by Romane Armand. It’s a poetic and performative introduction to the festival: ‘Tous-tes a table’.

The opening will take place in the courtyard of the Tour à Plomb, or in the hall in case of rain.

Doors open at 5.30pm with a welcome drink.

Romane Armand (she)
Romane Armand's work is resolutely focused on building futures, and she asks herself which shelters to choose and which stories to tell. Whether she's working as a storyteller, in comics or in the field of printed images, she likes to use a trigger from the real world, then freely seize on fiction. It's with the same impulse that her artistic practice is distilled into her everyday life. Building spaces where fiction and reality intertwine: Forgeries; Bringing discreet voices to the radio; Supporting the Ateliers du Toner project; Living in a house: En 3000 éditions, combining narrative ideas between poetry and science fiction and building a community there so that we can make stories like we make society. https://www.en3000editions.be/
Aliette Griz (they)
Aliette Griz is an author. Before turning to paper, writing a blog taught her that the things that come up every day and enables a jolt, provide us with collective alibis. The word ‘commitment’ is a #drivingforce. Since 2015, they have been designing projects in which the words ‘solidarity and hospitality’ have a place, notably with La Voix des Sans Papiers in Brussels. Facilitating writing workshops and composing poetic traces are linked in their search for a collective voice that makes sound and sense. The contamination between texts and heads allows us to face together what surrounds us. Since 2021, their practice has become more diverse, as they ventured into documentary filmmaking, directing the movie Ali and Aliette. They are also exploring calligraphy and its power to evoke language. https://aliettegriz.com/
Sina Kienou
Sina Kienou is a young artist from Burkina Faso. Music has always been part of his daily life. A family passion passed on by his parents, who are also musicians. Sina is considered a griot in his culture, a term that means ‘guardian of culture’. His grandfather was even the chief griot. Whether solo, in a duo with Soledad Kalza or in a trio with his two brothers, with his classical or electric guitar, he expresses his creativity in every possible way. All means are good to find himself in a studio or on stage. @sina_kienou
