"The Dream Whisperer" is an original concept by Belgian painter and illustrator Camille Stassen, also known as Cam Stass. Before dedicating herself fully to painting and drawing, Cam Stass explored graphic design and advertising. Inspired by her travels and the forms of nature, she seeks to convey messages of hope and happiness through her work.
This mural, covering over 150 square meters, was unveiled in May 2024. It depicts a young girl breathing dreams into the mind of a boy. Beyond enhancing a wall at the SPW, this project serves as a catalyst to revitalize the north end of the train station, bringing art into the streets, accessible to all. It invites people to pause, take in their surroundings, and see public space with fresh eyes. The mural carries a positive message: “Smile and Dream,” an invitation to escape reality for a few moments.
Finally, the mural is interactive and community-driven, with the dreams illustrated in the bubbles conceived during four participatory workshops organized by the non-profit “At Art” and about twenty local children. It’s a beautiful way to engage the community!
