"Le Pays Noir" is French for "The Black Country" which is a reference to the coal industry that made the region very successful in the 19th and 20th century before its downfall. Nowadays there are almost only abandoned factories. It is now a very poor place and even voted "Ugliest City in the World". A group of artists sees huge potential and organises a creative market once or twice a year. For the second time I took part in it and had a blast. So much energy, so many cool artists and wonderful people.
