Hidden stories in Luxembourg venue's new Wimmelbuch

ARA City Radio

A new and innovative book project set to captivate readers of all ages is coming from Rotondes. Blurring the lines between traditional literature and interactive art, the book offers a vibrant visual exploration reminiscent of "Where’s Waldo?" but with a unique storytelling twist. Lucie explains how the idea for this visual masterpiece was born out of a desire to showcase the dynamic life and activities happening at Rotondes. The book not only highlights daily experiences but captures personal stories and characters, providing a seamless narrative journey through its colourful pages. Finding the right artist to bring this concept to life was no small feat. Lucie recounts how they selected Viktoria Mladenovski, whose artistic talent and creative vision perfectly aligned with their goals. Viktoria immersed herself in the Rotondes community, meeting team members and participating in activities to authentically represent the lively spirit of Rotondes in her illustrations. What makes this book truly special is its universality. With no text, readers from diverse backgrounds and ages can engage with the artwork and interpret the stories in their own way. Children in local schools were given early glimpses, and their feedback highlighted themes of inclusivity, individuality, and joy—a testament to the book’s powerful visual storytelling. As Lucie shares plans for the book’s release, she reflects on the joy and challenges of editing down countless fun and meaningful moments for inclusion. With its January 26th debut, this visual adventure promises to be a treasure trove of discovery and inspiration.
