THE UTOPIA CYCLE
Since 2023, the multidisciplinary artist Delphine Lanson who is in charge of artistic coordination, offering classes the chance to work and play around the theme of utopia.
During the school year 2023-2024this theme has turned to the axis of intimate and personal utopia under the heading You Topie. Accompanied and guided by the artistic and educational teams, the students explored their hopes, desires, ideals and dreams for the future. Drawing on their own intimate writings, ancestral stories and initiation narratives, they revealed a singular point of view on individual utopia.
Visit 2024-2025Delphine Lanson invited the students with Elsautopie or Green Mountain: a path to utopia to explore utopian visions of their changing neighborhoods. The play was written with the invaluable collaboration of the Brouillons Bouillants writers' collective. Support from the Cité Éducative enabled the creation of a 12-minute documentary short directed by Anaïs Baseilhac with the 5th graders, to follow them through the creative process of the show and capture their words and dreams for the neighborhood.
Visit 2025-2026, For the final year of the cycle, students will be tackling the world's utopias with Cosmotopie.
NOTE OF INTENT FROM COSMOTOPIE
- Anonymous, or perhaps a Utopian of the future
In 1516, Thomas More imagined an ideal island called Utopia.
In 2024, we explored YouTopie, the intimate utopia.
In 2025, Elseautopie paved the way for a neighborhood utopia.
In 2026, we reach the final stop on this journey: Cosmotopia, a utopia for the world.
In a global context marked by crises, climate emergencies and social injustice, what can 11 to 15 year olds propose when asked :
How about rethinking the world?
What if utopia became a collective responsibility?
For several months, students dream, debate, write, play, laugh, shout, dance, unlearn and reinvent. They project themselves into a world to be (re)constructed differently, a world where borders are diluted, languages are woven, the living take the floor and decisions are made in a circle.
Cosmotopie is a poetic and joyful manifesto, a puzzle of multiple visions, a building site of hope.
From plant societies to children's parliaments, from interstellar utopias to pacts with ancestors, the CHAT students sketch out a cosmogony in which art, the link to the living, justice and beauty are placed at the heart of all action.
In 2026, Utopians are them.
Their voices resonate as they imagine a world worthy of their dreams.
Welcome to Cosmotopia!
