Vers la guérison

We often talk about anger and resilience, but less often about healing: that is the question this workshop explores through writing. Through a warm-up and poetic exercises built around associations of words, images, and sensations, each person gathers material and then lets it take shape at their own pace, without forcing it. The workshop ends with a time to share, when anyone who wishes can read their text. The point is not to write well, but to give yourself permission to write.

No writing experience is required.

Organized by: CIDFF Phocéen- Marseille

In 2020, we wanted to create a unique event in Marseille for 25 November to raise the visibility of violence against women and gender minorities and introduce our associations to the general public.

25 November is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. Established by the UN in 1999, it commemorates the three Mirabal sisters, Dominican activists brutally murdered on the orders of the current head of state, Rafael Trujillo.

For this occasion, we wanted to create something that would explore the difficult subject of violence from different angles. We therefore invited artists from Marseille to produce or co-create content related to this theme, using different formats and tools and engaging different audiences.

That is how J'crains dégun came about, and we are now opening its 4th edition!
