-Soundbite with (Saif Al-Din Al-Jbali – Electrical engineer and painter):
“I have loved painting since I was a child, and this initiative came out of spontaneiety. I love painting in public spaces. I chose this street because Avenue Habib Bourguiba is a symbolic street for Tunisians. Being here on this street is an opportunity to meet people, and to paint in a public space, which is different from painting in a closed space. What I paint in open spaces is shared with everyone, as if we are all painting together, the energy here is greater and more intensified.”
-Soundbite (Munia Zaqqam – Tunisian):
“I saw such initiatives outside of Tunisia, but this is the first in Tunisia. It is a wonderful initiative. Tunisians love such initiatives that show the country in a classy and beautiful image.”
-Soundbite with (Saif Al-Din Al-Jbali – Electrical engineer and painter):
“This experience has developed little by little the relationship between me and the people who watch my art. In Tunisia, this is a phenomenon, it is kind of a surprise for people, who raise questions as to what my art is and why I do it here. Sometimes people laugh at me but I have learned to accept their reactions. I have also found encouragement in those who express happiness from seeing my art. All these experiences been a process of communicating with people.”
-Soundbite with (Saif Al-Din Al-Jbali – Electrical engineer and painter):
“Avenue Habib Bourguiba is our exhibition and workshop. It is for everyone. It is a street of life, art and freedom. A street that brings us all together.”
