With his very figurative and close to the illustration, Agostino Iacurci chose to create a triptych fresco on three walls of student residences on the Besançon university campus. Three walls for three characters and three generations. At first glance, these three characters look very similar, all in profile, with the same chromatic ranges. But on closer inspection, they are quite different. The first smokes a pipe. The second holds a long view in his hands. The third breathes in bubbles, birds flying around him: the 3 terrestrial levels (water, earth, sky) and the 3 generations (youth, adulthood, old age) are represented in this triptych. Project created within the scope of the “2nd Bien Urbain Festival edition”.
