CONY, the giant mascot that symbolizes the works of Charleroi

The young Mourad, he does not feel at all bothered by the inconvenience generated by the work. “Me, the works, I don’t say no!”, he said with confidence and assurance. “Charleroi, the black city; Charleroi, the city of barakis; Charleroi here; Charleroi over there… People from other towns talk, jacquetent, criticize. While in real life, our city has charm. I love my city! With the works, Charleroi is improving. Thanks to all this work, we will finally be respected!” Mourad pours out in front of the CONY mascot.

Behind her absurd disguise, Charlotte Burgaud is stung in the heart. The French artist who has lived in Brussels for ten years is touched by the spontaneity, sincerity and friendliness of the Carolos. “I no longer want to leave Charleroi”she concludes.
