The current armed conflicts in the world, and in particular those linked to the Islamic State System (ISIS) in Iraq, constitute a major obstacle to stable benchmarks, to a collective reading of a common culture, and to a society free from the symptoms of war. Inclusive artistic interventions are often deployed with children affected by conflict as a source of resilience and empowerment. The objective of this article is to propose entry into resilience identified during the implementation of a device of an "artistic biography" activities with coaches of an NGO and young people in a camp in Iraq. The device built was a project to "paint our caravans" as a first project with the young people in a camp. Through our experience as an artist, trainer and researcher, we observe the indicators of entry into "presence" during the artistic activities. Involvement in a collective work, self-recognition by the coaches and self-recognition in the final artistic work are the three indicators of presence that we note. Individual and collective resilience processes are complex and long and subject to many obstacles. Our article invites further investigation to build evidence to develop artistic response in humanitarian emergencies.

Notre réflexion sur l’ accueillir s’appuie sur la pratique d’un artiste qui propose un art de rencontre . Spécialisé en théâtre, ses performances mettent en œuvre des actions construites sur l’idée de la disparition de la dimension de l’Autre dans nos sociétés contemporaines. Il peut sembler contradictoire que cette figure exemplaire d’un monde sans autre puisse s’ouvrir à l’expérience de l’altérité. Pour questionner la manière dont cette pratique artistique expérimente l’altérité, nous distinguons, comme le fait François Soulages, l’« avec l’autre » de l’« en face de l’autre », pour (re) penser l’altérité avec Levinas dans sa radicalité. La pratique artistique qui est ici examinée est donc celle d’une radicale altérité qui nous apprend à accueillir.
