This workshop took part in the project named: "Creative Youth Action" whit a main purpose of using all kinds of art as a creative way to express activism nowadays. The participants should choose certain situation in the country that they don’t like and act upon it/ express it using writing, illustrating, photographing and acting.
I was the coordinator of a group of 4 young architects that used graphic design, illustration and small interventions as a way to express our dissatisfaction of how the government (don't) use the neglected and unused spaces in the town.
ConsciouSpace lasted for 4 months of intense intellectual and practical work, with professional guests and lectures, and it resulted in an exhibition and a public discussion.
+Name: CosciouSpace
+Theme: The space start to exist when is recognized. And the one who recognizes is the one who perceives the potential.
The potential depends on the need. The potential is changeable. Our goal is to change the use of the unused urban spaces into platforms/ communities for creating interactive gatherings thus giving the otherwise “dead” spaces a living vibrant soul. Places where the young artists of all fields can meet freely and exchange vibrant energy. This could later emerge into a community, a squat of source.
