This project entailed travelling from Senegal to Côte d'Ivoire to re-establish contact with my former student and protégé, Gilbert Medeton, who participated in the building of my 1999 exhibition, "Portes et passages du retour", involving the street youth of Abidjan. The double purpose of this reunion was to attempt to organize the voyage of Gilbert to Senegal, where the exhibition has blossomed into the establishment of a Holistic Art Centre project in the region of Mbodiene / Ngazobil.
