The origin of the “Our childhood dreams” project in Roubaix

“Our childhood dreams” is an exhibition initiated byAket Kubic. You may have already heard of him because he has been known in the world since the beginning of 2023, where he began to receive the recognition he deserves on the occasion of an advertisement. Since then, he has been questioning his place in art and trying to find the meaning of what he does.

The idea of ​​the exhibition was for him to reflect on the motivations that drive him to create and the reasons for his approach. In short, he wanted to refocus on the essential: taking the time and doing things with passion. Childhood dreams are at the origin of his art, because that’s where it all began for him. Hence the name of the exhibition: “Our childhood dreams”.

For the occasion, he invited 8 other artists to come and let loose on the walls with him. The result is a very beautiful exhibition not to be missed. Roubaix with painting, friends, sharing and fun!
