PRODUCT OF MY ENVIRONMENT
We transform spaces into environmental, cultural and human assets, through depolluting paint and co-creation sessions.
The initiative
PRODUCT OF MY ENVIRONMENT™
A 5,000 sq. ft. environmental and cultural transformation.
We do more than create art.
We transform one selected environment into a measurable living case study, combining environmental technology, scientific before-and-after testing, a site-specific artwork, community co-creation, strategic local partnership and documentary storytelling.
We pursue measurable environmental impact while building new bridges between people.
One environment.
5,000 square feet.
One community.
A transformation we can document and measure.
What the initiative includes
A selected environment
One institutional, educational, corporate, municipal or community environment is selected to host the initiative. The proposed site must provide approximately 5,000 sq. ft. of eligible interior or exterior surface.
Environmental technology
The project integrates carefully selected environmental materials, coatings or technologies appropriate for the chosen environment. Every claim is connected to the exact technology selected, manufacturer documentation, applicable certifications, the testing protocol and the results measured on site.
Scientific baseline
Before the artistic intervention, qualified scientific or technical partners establish a baseline using an approved testing protocol. The measured indicators vary depending on the environment and the selected technology.
Site-specific artwork
Atelier Dino creates a permanent 5,000 sq. ft. artistic transformation shaped by the architecture, the people, the identity of the environment, the environmental objectives and the cultural context of the host.
Community co-creation
The project includes a structured community activation. Participants contribute to the creation through guided sessions designed and supervised by Atelier Dino, keeping the work artistically coherent while creating a genuine sense of participation and belonging.
Strategic community partner
Each project is developed with at least one relevant community, educational, cultural, environmental or scientific partner, connecting the project to the people and priorities of the selected environment.
After testing
After installation, the scientific or technical partner repeats the approved testing process. The results are compared with the original baseline and presented transparently, without promising a predetermined scientific result.
Documentary production
The complete initiative is professionally documented in photography and film: the original environment, baseline testing, artistic development, community participation, installation, the final environment, post-installation testing, participant and partner perspectives, and measured results.
Product of My Environment collection
The completed project becomes a documented chapter in the growing Product of My Environment collection. The host organization becomes a participating institutional partner and custodian of one of the initiative's environments.
Project phases
Identify the environment, objectives, surfaces, community and strategic partners.
Establish the scientific baseline and confirm the environmental technology.
Develop the site-specific artistic direction and prepare the environment.
Produce the artwork through professional installation and guided community co-creation.
Repeat the scientific testing, document the results and integrate the project into the POME collection.
Starting investment
Final investment is determined by the location, condition of the surfaces, selected technology, scientific protocol, installation requirements, community activation, documentation and travel.

Co-creation · Live Performance · Collective Participation
Painting together. In the moment. In public.
Each co-creation gathers people around a shared surface. Children, adults, colleagues, neighbours. Brushes in hand, they contribute to a work that belongs to everyone who touched it.
Live performance becomes a form of collective authorship. A moment of dialogue between the artist, the space and the community.
Every session is shaped around the host. A guided intention, a chosen palette, a rhythm that welcomes first-time hands and seasoned ones alike. From schools and municipal libraries to corporate gatherings, festivals and institutional launches, each format is written for the room.
What remains is more than a painting. A shared memory, a living archive of the gesture, and an artwork the community can point to and say we made this together.
02 · Human Transformation
From Canada to Benin, a shared language.
Live collaborative painting experiences designed for people, communities, institutions, public audiences and organizations. Whether hosted in Canada or abroad, the experience remains the same : art becomes dialogue, participation and connection.
An occasion to be seen.
To contribute.
To belong.
Each participating community, institution or organization becomes a collector of the initiative while investing in well-being, shared culture and human connection.
03 · One Growing Collection
Living Collection.
Every collaboration contributes to one growing Canadian collection documenting environmental innovation, collaborative creativity and measurable transformation.
Every mural.
Every canvas.
Every collaboration.
To build one of Canada's most meaningful public collections demonstrating how collaborative art and environmental innovation can reshape the places where people live, learn and work.
