INSPIRE PROJECT 2020
Mary Zygouri, invited artist
The launch of this year's INSPIRE PROJECT workshop entitled "Dream Archives: Dreams as a primal material for artistic production and practice" was realised online on July 6, with the introduction to the thematic and research field of the workshop, as well as the recording of participants' dreams. On July 13, the collective and performative part of the workshop began. Mary Zygouri, following open pedagogical method, approached the plan of cooperation and joint learning in the fluid urban and natural landscape of Thessaloniki. The hidden paths of water in the city, in relation to the fluidity of the Dream, become the field of action and artistic experimentation of the workshop. Through performative and site-specific practices, the collective experience -sensory, aesthetic, associative, momentary, dreamy- interacted and co-shaped the works of the 18 young artists presented in the exhibition.
Inspire Project is co-financed by Greece and the European Union (European Regional Development Fund).
