The outstanding results of a creative public initiative that raised more than €20,000 for a Brussels homeless organisation are now on show at Halles Saint-Géry
Maybe you saw them pop up on social media: Those quintessential little wooden mannequin’s creatively transformed – sometimes with props – into sculptures bursting with personality.
One is, for instance, holding a Belgian endive. Another is hiding under – or perhaps being run over by – a shopping cart. A green version is becoming one with a moss-covered log, another is finding its place in a lovingly sketched universe.
They were made by artists and other members of the public in support of Infirmiers de Rue, an organisation providing medical care to the homeless. And now you can see them all together at the free exhibition
