Why did you apply for this scholarship? How will the scholarship support you?

This grant will enable me to work in optimal conditions that encourage inspiration. In this way, I will be able to produce a good work of artistic creation in the service of the fight against covid-19 and to show that culture is a powerful adjuvant for strengthening resilience in the face of various crises.

What are your concrete artistic objectives after this residency?

Produce a filmed poetic storytelling show in the form of a soap opera; and broadcast the soap operas on digital platforms and social networks.
