A research-action studio for sensitive and aesthetic diplomacy

Our path

We support intercultural dynamics in their sensitive dimensions.
We transform tensions and diversities into spaces of co-creation and resources for action.
We cultivate a relational aesthetics, rooted in ethics and carrying a collective momentum.

We build alliances where borders have been drawn.

The BelPeyi approach: situated and creole

We consider territories as living spaces, inhabited and shaped by histories and memories.
Attuned to the most subtle relational layers, we bring forth fertile interactions, shared visions, balanced forms of cooperation, and common imaginaries that endure.

What has been silenced

We are attentive to both stories and silences. The unspoken, the latent tensions, the wounded memories, the feelings of belonging, the founding myths, or the identities, all constitute profound realities of a territory. We acknowledge them in their cultural, sensitive, and intimate dimensions, and affirm that true and lasting transformation can only arise through such attentive listening.

What is awakening

Each territory carries its identities, its emotional dynamics, its beliefs, its ideologies, its dormant resources, and its fertile frictions.
We build upon these dynamics already at work and bring them to light, in order to foster the emergence of a singular recognition of the territory, co-constructed through a shared vision.

What is coming into being

With respect for individualities, local balances, and the autonomies at play, we foster the recomposition of each territory’s singularities, seeing them not as a pretext for division, but as sources of co-creation of plural identities, of creolité, and of shared imaginaries, carried through collective and unifying projects.

Towards living and singular territories

Through inclusive and open action-research projects, we co-create collective spaces of connection, dialogue, and mutual understanding, which we nurture and sustain through artistic and innovative approaches rooted in the long term.
