« Donner une deuxième chance »February 17th, 2011 « Donner une deuxième chance » is a project of artistic creation that attempts to provoke a reflection on the relationship between poverty, social exclusion and incarceration. Members will create one or more works from used, broken or defective items. The goal is to give a second chance to these objects in order to symbolically recreate the second chance that criminalized women ask of society as well as the second chance that these women must also give to society. Through art, this project aims to inspire change in our society in order for these women to no longer feel abandoned by it. The works will be accompanied by written thoughts on poverty and social exclusion. They will be presented at an exposition that will be accompanied by a round table discussion dealing with the experiences of the members as well as the value and socio-political implications of this project.
