Berrekki is one of the nine winners of the “9 visions” call for projects. Launched in 2018, this call for projects brought together nine artists and focused on a specific theme. The 30 metres of fences, located on the rue du Marché aux Poulets and, in part, surrounding the future administrative centre of the City of Brussels, are the canvas on which the artists have a small space to express themselves on the theme “BXL bouge pour vous, avec vous et grâce à vous” (BXL moves for you, with you and thanks to you). The aim is to showcase Brussels as a creative, vibrant city that is constantly evolving – a city that is embracing modernity; a smart city.

“Hey Fieu” is a term commonly used in Brussels slang. This expression can evoke humour as well as annoyance, but its primary function is to challenge. The graphic representation “Hey fieu” (viens voir ça ici !) aims to attract the attention of passers-by owing to the monumental scale of the work but also to highlight all the works produced for the “9 visions” project.
