MEÏSSA FALL

Art galleries

Already as a child, Meïssa Fall, when he helped his father in his work as a bicycle repairman, imagined sculptures with bicycle parts. He took up the torch by opening his own repair shop, while adding his own touch of creativity. Here bicycle parts get a second life and take on the appearance of characters, musical instruments or animals. Unique works of art for which he was elected best artist designer in Saint-Louis in 2017. Take a look at his workshop, you'll be surprised by his imagination!

DÉCO AFRIK

Art galleries

In this small art gallery, Cissé, Mamadou and Ahmed, three friendly artists, create beautiful sand paintings on site. They have a wide range of natural sand colors from different beaches in Senegal, Morocco and Niger. Freehand, they spread the mineral grains from the darkest to the lightest on a wooden board soaked in glue to create their works, then dried in the sun. From typical Senegalese landscapes such as Gorée, to the beautiful silhouettes of African women, you will have a crush!
