Toreken
In the Rabot neighbourhood, artist Han Coussement joined forces with local young people. He asked them to document their living environment with disposable cameras.
This mural is based on two interesting pictures taken by these youngsters. In addition to the City of Ghent, Graffiti vzw, Minus One, Ergenekon vzw and Eetcafe Toreke also contributed to this project.
Han Coussement discovered painting after he had been arrested for graffiti spraying. As he was looking for an activity which allowed him to express himself artistically without getting fined, he registered for painting classes. Nowadays, he explores the boundaries between painting on canvas and street art.
