Estafette is a new series of four residencies and exhibitions, marking an exciting step for our platform dedicated to artists rooted in graffiti and street art. In 2025, nine artists are invited to develop and present new work.

The third edition took place at KEVN, featuring Dalal Mitwally and Leyli Rashidi Rauf. During a two-week residency, this creative duo will transform our exhibition spaces into open studios, inviting the public to witness their process. Throughout this time, they will create, collaborate, visit inspiring places, and engage in discussions, all while working toward an exhibition that will be on view for nine weeks.

In collaboration with KEVN, we created a zine that captures the energy of this third Estafette: highlighting the residency and showcasing the work produced during those two weeks.

Dalal Mitwally and Leyli Rashidi Rauf both focus on the human scale in their work. They are interested in capturing stories of people through observation, conversation and research. Dalal engages directly with communities, transforming memories and local histories into murals that become part of the public fabric. Her work amplifies voices often overlooked, creating visual narratives that respond to their surroundings. Leyli turns more inward to explore identity, gender and the psychology of the self. Her meticulous drawings, paintings and installations are equally grounded in human connection. They both use lived experiences to inform their visual language, weaving together individual and collective stories.
