Programme
The approach of the project is to 'work with' the existing given: the landscape, the materials and the actors. As such we transformed an unused tennis court into a garden of curiosities and chose to work with material that we found and collect on the site. We organized a series of workshops with the inhabitants to draw the shape, plant the crack, co-design the objects and finally place them collectively in order recall the past of the site.
About
Joseph Beuys first introduced the term 'social sculpture' in the 1960's. He believed that art has the potential to transform a society and that 'everyone is an artist'. From that statement we believe that art as a process of co-production can stimulate the creative potential of each and everyone to serve a collective project.
