A ‘cosmogram’ Drawing Workshop

By Sébastien Hendrickx & Chawki lahmar

As part of the educational workshops organised by our Art et Education department à L'Art Rue, we recently ran a workshop entitled ‘Petites villes imaginaires’, under the direction of Belgian artist Sébastien Hendrickx, accompanied by Chawki Lahmar.


During this drawing workshop based on cosmograms, the children explored concepts of cosmology and urban representation by imagining the best and worst possible cities.

By exploring the key elements that make up these fictional cities, the participants also reflected on ecological and environmental issues. 




The workshop guided the children in the creation of their cosmogram on a single sheet of paper, stimulating their imagination and offering them an innovative approach to drawing based on the miniaturisation and relationality of the elements. Using simple, progressive tasks, the children produced their drawings step by step, while enjoying moments of sharing and exchange around their creations.


The aim of the workshop was not only to enrich the children's creativity, but also to raise their awareness of urban and ecological issues, while encouraging collective and participatory learning.
