Artwork location: France
This artwork features two children, a boy and a girl, standing against a textured blue-green background. The boy is carrying a backpack, perhaps emphasizing a school scene, and shares an interest with the girl who is holding a rectangular object, possibly a book or tablet. The characters are rendered in a pointillist style, blending touches of color to create their shapes and expressions. The dense, almost blurry texture lends a sense of dynamism and depth to the whole, capturing a simple yet engaging interaction. The contrast between the light colors of the characters and the background evokes a soft light, like a symbolic dawn of discovery and exchange. This artwork is compelling in its minimalist yet richly symbolic representation of the bonds and learning shared between younger generations.

Presentation
Mohamed Dembélé is a Malian visual artist who lives and works in Bamako. Passionate about drawing since a young age, he graduated from the Balla Fasséke Kouyaté Conservatory of Multimedia Arts and Crafts.
An active member of the collective of young Malian visual artists Tim'Arts, his work earned him the 2nd prize at the Rencontre Internationales de Peinture de Ouagadougou (RIPO) in 2021. His artistic approach is characterized by the decomposition of the subject through a multitude of vibrant lines in varied colors, suggesting continuous movement on the canvas and referring to the post-impressionist movement.
His figurative paintings, immersed in the twists and turns of daily life in Malian society, tell us about the current social and economic realities that many young people experience. Illegal immigration and street trading are his favorite themes.
It depicts isolated silhouettes walking the streets, made invisible in a Malian capital in full transformation, as vast as it is perilous, to pay tribute to the determination of these street merchants and to draw society's attention to the harshness of their conditions. . The profusion of lines of color prevails over the gloom of these ordinary lives subjected to a difficult daily life which crush dreams and aspirations for a better future.
