One Night. Ten Masterpieces. Ten Texts.

Winner of Season 3 of Nouvelle École (Netflix), Youssef Swatt’s is more than a rapper. He’s a vessel of emotions. A poet who translates our era with power and softness.

During one night, he wandered the halls of the Art & History Museum — alone, in silence.

In front of each work, he took the time to look, to feel, to listen to the whispers of History within the museum’s collections.

From that night, a unique pop-up trail was born: “Les silences que j’ai entendus”.
A path through ten selected works, each accompanied by an original text*, written in the moment. Raw, calm, and sincere words.

These texts will guide you through a unique experience — an intimate exploration of the museum’s collections, seen through the eyes and words of an artist of our time.

What will you discover along the way?
Depending on the masterpiece, you’ll find:

• A text written by Youssef
• A video
• An audio capsule
• A photo taken during his night at the museum

This journey is an invitation to slow down, to feel, to see old masterpieces through a new lens.
Follow in Youssef’s footsteps. And let the silences speak to you.

*Youssef Swatt’s texts have intentionally not been translated, as poetry draws its strength from the original language. Take a moment to listen, to feel, and to let yourself be carried by his words. The video clips are subtitled, so everyone can fully enjoy the tour and the beauty that surrounds it.
