The faces of the inhabitants of Nantes illuminate the castle of the Dukes until January 5. Their photos are projected onto one of the perimeter walls. This is how the town hall chose to wish a happy new year 2022 since the vows ceremony had to be canceled.

In Nantes, nothing that materializes would be possible without the people of Nantes
“This projection represents a large patchwork of photo portraits of anonymous Nantes women. A way of paying homage to all the inhabitants”, specifies the town hall in a press release. “In Nantes, nothing that materializes would be possible without the people of Nantes, whether they invest, participate, get involved, invent, create, or simply change their habits. Thus, thanks to the inhabitants, the projects of the City are moving forward and are being realized little by little, which is why the City wanted to invite them to participate in the vows and to “make the event” together! “
