Music Residency Summer 2025 – Nature
Nature - MONDREPUIS (France) - 10/04/2025OEUVRER is a collective of architects based in Mondrepuis (02500) in Aisne. The Collective is made up of an Architecture SCOP and an Association, united around a single place: the Archipelago. The SCOP d'Architecture works on various projects, ranging from equipment to collective housing, including offices and private housing and has the capacity to intervene on projects in the MH sector. Its members are mostly multidisciplinary and combine the practice of architecture with various activities and specialties: heritage architect, ESS engineer, craftsman (electrician, carpenter, carpenter), actor, etc. The association, for its part, organizes meetings, exhibitions, conferences and other collective events around Architecture, inside or outside the walls, raising awareness from individuals to professionals, including school audiences during various workshops: models, cob, treasure hunt, ceramics, etc. The Archipelago is a place of experimentation in architectural practice and a laboratory of uses. This building from the end of the 19th century, formerly called the “villa Mon Repos”, became the property of the PRO VITA association in the 1930s. This association, embodied by the soul of “Father Mathieu” for more than 50 years, is one of the oldest summer camp organizations for children and adolescents in the North. In the 1990s, the association separated from this property. The land is then redivided into several plots and resold to individuals. At the end of 2020, members of OEUVRER, looking for a place to experiment, came across this site, combining heritage, history and architecture. The project then becomes concrete: the Archipelago is born. The Archipelago is the idea that by creating a plurality of islands, approaches, experiments, uses, on site and off site, we collectively try another way of being in the world. A territorial network that would allow us to inhabit territories differently, by reinvesting vacant heritage, by restoring uses to places while perpetuating their memory. The Archipelago is therefore a laboratory in which we experiment with different types of uses including artistic residencies.

Writer Seeking Residency – WritingWriting - Roubaix (France) - 08/05/2025I will soon be fifty-five, I have been writing for a few months. A rather short first novel, finished or almost, which still requires one or two rereadings. Another, much longer, that I'm starting - between research on the premises and first draft. I have always read, a lot. Some characters have always been with me. There are often brothers and sisters: Franny and Zooey at Salinger, Ada and Van Veen at Nabokov, Franny and John at Irving. There are lost men, grandiose women (almost all of them!), adults who are still children or children who do not yet know what awaits them. I started writing rather late, but I now write every day and today I would have a hard time doing without it. Iowa Bob, the weightlifting grandfather in The New Hampshire Hotel by John Irving, gives his secret: “You’ve got to get obsessed and stay obsessed”. I thought writing was a matter of talent (which I didn't have) and discipline; Perhaps, in reality, it’s just a matter of really wanting it – to the point of obsession.

Looking For A Living Space To Create – WritingWriting - Saint-Raphaël (France) - 17/05/2025Following a profound spiritual awakening, marked by the dissolution of the feeling of a separate self, writing – long suspended – began to flow again. From this silence, very strong creative impulses emerge today: a show between tale, fable and theater, with burlesque, poetic and deeply human dialogues. A storyteller by heart and voice, today I am driven by a desire: to imagine a play that combines the invisible with the stage. A work that speaks to the soul as much as to laughter, and which can one day be performed in living, open, loving places. To do this, I need to move around, to leave my bearings, to settle somewhere else, a virgin, inspiring space, conducive to creation. I like meeting open-minded people, sensitive to intuition, to mystery, to what cannot be seen but can be felt. If you have a place to offer, a space where we can write, dream, create... I would be honored to discover it. And who knows? Perhaps this place itself will nourish the work to be born.

Poetry Literary Exploration – WritingWriting - DIGNAC (France) - 20/05/2025Passionate about literature since childhood, it was as a teenager that I began to write poems and stories. My busy life intersects with experiences in care, mediation, and the organization of socio-cultural projects across cities and continents. Human encounters and the gifts of nature sharpen my sensitivity, allowing me to depict my vision of the world through words. Today I want to devote myself fully to what has always been within me and take advantage of time to work on a new project and deepen certain literary bases to refine my creation and diversify the forms of writing. After many years of discreet writing, I published my first collection of poetry entitled Bonne Nuit l’Amour. I am currently working on two other projects and I would wholeheartedly wish for bubbles favorable to creation, launching me on the path of my limitless passion for writing.
