This is a interdisciplinary and participatory project called Unfolding - Unwrapped  based on the concept of Social Sculpture. It is a mix between workshop and performance 

Social sculpture is a phrase to describe an expanded concept of art that was advocated by the German conceptual artist Joseph Beuys (1921-1986), in the seventies  of the last century. Beuys created the term "social sculpture" to embody his understanding of art's potential to transform society. As a work of art, the social sculpture includes human activity that strives to structure and shape society or the environment. The central idea of a social sculptor is an person/artist who creates structures in society using language, thoughts, actions, and objects. Social Sculpture revolved around four main axes:

body awareness, spatial awareness, performances and collaboration.

The position of the body within the surrounding environment/location. The concept focus on the relations between the bodies to each other, movement, objects and surrounding space / environment. Participants will be engaged in physical movements and actions, changing roles, decision-making, exchange of ideas and interrogating performativity. Sculptural and textile materials will be introduced as working tools for creating communal body configurations.
