Mur Du Souffle - France
The third edition of the Mur du Souffle graffiti festival, which took place in Bruges in France was a great success! More than 800 people attended the live performance of five 35m2 frescoes and a truck customization performance. We, the Royal Talens Foundation, were asked to donate some Amsterdam spray paint cans to support this event.
Visitors of all ages could enjoy free stencil workshops and a refreshment bar with organic products while enjoying the sunshine and the Hiphop dancers who set fire to a family audience, happy to be free, in the open air and together for a good cause: to fight against Mucoviscidosis. Two primary school classes from the Arc en Ciel school were also our guests to discover graffiti and our association.
The festival was an opportunity to raise awareness of this genetic disease that progressively deteriorates the lungs and digestive system of the patients. Funds were raised to support medical research and people effectuated by cystic fibrosis.
The works of art produced during the various editions of the festival and many others are for sale in limited editions on the association’s website: www.murdusouffle.com
