Experience, by combining traditional art techniques with contemporary digital technologies, an artistic process where the participant simultaneously becomes the author, actor, and spectator of their own creation, in a world that is constantly evolving and questioning itself.
It's about reinvesting in the wonders and beauty of the world.
A new approach in the relationship between Art and self-knowledge; the proposed artistic concept allows the participant to enter unconsciously, then consciously and happily into a creative process in which he or she is the main actor.
Creative expression trains the participant to become the creator and shaper of his/her own reality.
For artist Béatrice de Fays, creation is a process of evolution, personal discovery and what exceeds our comprehension. In her view, everyone has within them the power to evolve and transform. All one needs to do is activate it.

Combining traditional art techniques with contemporary digital technologies, the creation workshop "Color My World" unfolds in several stages in order to gradually involve the participant (child or adult) in the creative process.
The last stage is a show generated in real time by the silhouette, movements, creations and voices of participant. Each interactive visual and sound world presented is created from the works and voice of the participant. This unique approach ensures that every participant's creativity is valued and showcased in a meaningful way.
This innovative creative workshop promotes the development of the participant's creativity and imagination, while providing them with a better understanding of themselves and positive confidence in their ability to evolve.
Color my World is made up of workshops that use different creation tools. This is an evolution from traditional tools (such as drawing) to interactive multimedia installations, augmented reality or video projections. The participant construct their world (with a past and an imaginary future) with drawings, then they tell the story of their avatar.
The drawings and sound recordings are then transported into the digital space in which the participants are invited to immerse themselves. In this interactive space, their artwork takes on another dimension. The participants can move around and transform their world with their bodies and their movements.
The multimedia installation "Via Presence" offers an immersive and interactive environment that is generated in real time by the participant's presence, movements and motions. The participant is invited to paint with his/her body (his/her silhouette, movements and motions) to harmoniously reveal his or her universe.
Each interactive visual and sound world presented is created from his/her works and voice.
The goal of this experience is to transpose one's imagination into an interactive space, while revealing and embodying one's universe through one's presence and movements.
Our upcoming initiatives and vision
"My avatar is a man who is in future and the alien came on earth with UFO."
We are currently finalizing the second phase of our pilot project of creative workshops. The first phase of the pilot project involved several creative workshops using different medias, which culminated with the interactive installation "Via Presence". The second phase (currently under development) combines the creation of augmented reality paintings with the creation of a flower garden to forge a poetic and tangible bridge between the real world and the universe of children's imagination, dreams, and deep aspirations.
Once the pilot project is complete, we will be able to demonstrate the value of this creative approach and automate the IT component to expand the project to a wider audience and other contexts.
We also hope to make these workshops accessible to underprivileged children in rural and urban India. We want to integrate art into their lives and education, offering them a different perspective on the world and on themselves.

Our philosophy and approach
"My avatar, my avatar do, do, do … that !"
For artist Béatrice de Fays, creation is a process of evolution, personal discovery and what exceeds our comprehension. In her view, everyone has within them the power to evolve and transform. All one needs to do is activate it.
Convinced of the power of artistic experience, B2Fays decided to pass on her creative process and knowledge to others through her workshops. In her work, the artist mixes new media with traditional arts. For her, the use of different media and supports (painting, drawing, video projection, interaction installation, augmented reality, etc.) offers new experiences and a profound inner questioning.
By sharing her creative process and her experience of art and innovative technologies, the artist invites children and adults, to take another look at themselves through a profound, intimate and significant experience. By changing the lighting, the vantage point or medium, the world is transformed. An ordinary action or movement takes an extraordinary dimension.
