Art2πR
Natural stone is an ecological material by nature. It “melts” in our environment, respects it, values it. Its use and exploitation do not release any form of pollution.

The project “Art2πR” aims to work the stone with children, teenagers and adults. It has already been created in a few cities in France, notably in 2015 at the green path district in Reims, and a ninth totem in Mardeuil, at Clos des Carrelles.
It involves setting up a block of stone 2 meters high and 7 tons, ideally at the entrance to the street Auban Moët, as a terminal that would announce the Social Center … In doing so, in addition to federate the inhabitants, the users and the partners social lodgers of the zone of influence of the Social Center around a project which is in the duration (15 days of realization for a durable material, the stone …), the project “Art 2 π R” will meet the objective of opening up the Social Center which will gain visibility, because of its location: be “at the top of the road after the big stone”.

Raise awareness of the connection between art environment |
Natural stone is an ecological material by nature. It “melts” in our environment, respects it, values it. Its use and exploitation do not release any form of pollution. Its transformation therefore requires little energy and has little impact on the environment. The grid of the quarries makes it possible to limit as far as possible the distances of transport and thus the ecological footprint. Natural stone is reusable almost to infinity.
