    Beskrivning

    From 25th May to 1st June, the 2023 Eleusis European Capital of Culture and EIGHT, critical institute for arts and politics are organising Mystery 43 The School of Waves and Weeds, two participatory workshops for all those interested in the arts, environment and politics, leading to the creation of a participatory artwork.

    Through interdisciplinary collaborations between scientists and artists from the fields of visual and performing arts and music, the educational approaches of the two workshops Seeds and Weeds (25th-28th May) and Together, All Islands Make an Archipelago (28th May-1st June) trace the journeys of seeds and the rhythms and shapes of the sea, respectively. By exploring poetic and political interrelations between production, development, parasitism and inertia, they seek to highlight local ecosystems and networks of mutual support, while raising more general questions about the critical new practices, methodologies and educational approaches that respond to the needs of today and their corresponding repercussions in the urban, natural and socio-political realm.

    The participatory artwork produced by the participants of the two workshops will be presented, in September 2023, in the framework of the Ecoculture Festival.
