Mesto transformacije: mesto gde sve počinje – umetnici se vraćaju u umetnički prostor-kooperativu u kostimima napravljenim od sakupljenog otpada. (Ljubaznošću Edija Eketea)
Bijenale mladih i kustoski segment Oaze (Tane_Tanja Laketić i Dušan Ivić), ispred Udruženja likovnih umetnika Srbije (ULUS), a u saradnji sa PhD in One Night i Orangeries de Bierbais (Belgija) pozivaju vas na jedinstvenu radionicu u trajanju od pet dana na kojoj ćemo zajedno sa umetnikom i aktivistom Edijem Eketeom iz DR Kongo izrađivati kostim od prikupljenog otpada — praksu kojom umetnik već šesnaest godina poziva na ekološku odgovornost i društvenu jednakost o čemu svedoči i naredni link.
Ovakav kostim, izrađen od plastičnih flaša, čepova, kartonske i celofanske ambalaže, kesa postaje živa socijalna skulptura — simbol dekolonijalizma, društvenog osvešćivanja i transformacije.
Prijavu za učestvovanje na radionici možete pronaći ovde.
Napravljeni kostim će biti predstavljen na završom performansu, javnoj prezentaciji kostima u šetnji Edija Eketea kroz grad, kao i razgovor sa njim i celokupnim timom uz njega (Belgija/Srbija) zakazan je za 30.9. sa početkom u 19h u Umetničkom paviljonu “Cvijeta Zuzoric”.

Youth Biennial and the curatorial segment Oases (Tane_Tanja Laketić and Dušan Ivić), on behalf of the Association of Fine Artists of Serbia (ULUS), in collaboration with PhD in One Night and Orangeries de Bierbais (Belgium), invite you to a unique five-day workshop during which we will, together with artist and activist Eddy Ekete from the DR Congo, create a costume from collected waste materials — a practice the artist has been using for sixteen years to advocate for ecological responsibility and social equality, as demonstrated in the following link.
The costume, made from plastic bottles, caps, cardboard and cellophane packaging, and plastic bags, becomes a living social sculpture — a symbol of decoloniality, social awareness, and transformation.
You can find the application form to participate in the workshop here.
The completed costume will be presented in a final performance, a public walk through the city by Eddy Ekete, followed by a conversation with the artist and his team (Belgium/Serbia), scheduled for September 30 at 7 p.m. at the Art Pavilion "Cvijeta Zuzorić".
