PICNIC10
23 - 30 AUGUST 2010
Theme : RITUAL
@ Papay Shores, Lands and Ruins
and Indoor Programme @ PAPEY LISTSKJUL and other available rooms |
|
PICNIC
is an invitation to have a good time in Papay, exploring the
Island and developing place-specific collaborative works. No
limits in works media – all art forms existing, newly
created and experimental are welcome.
We will perambulate in hill and at the shoreline of the island
to find inspiring spot to have a PICNIC, to share meal, drink
and ideas.
The Theme of Papay PICNIC is RITUAL as a working process as
well as work/product itself. Contrary to the idea of the ritual
as a canonised action trough its repetition achieving status
of TRADITION, we would like to see the ritual in application
to contemporary development in philosophy and technology. CHAOS
AS A RITUAL. GENETIC PROGRAMMING, ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND
RITUAL. DELUZIAN RITUAL and other interpretations which will
draw the line between TRADITION and STAGNATION, representing
tradition as a fluid creative action rather than rigid form
of behaviour. The task seems impossible but at the end of the
day it will be a great achievement if we all will have this
PICNIC time to reflect on impossibility and go back with some
new ideas |
|
PROGRAMME
will be developed during the week. We will test a few PICNIC
locations around the island and possibly will share some results
by the end of the week with a grand PICNIC. The programme will
be defined by the island itself rather than some prepared in
advance script. Time frame of one week is also can be extended
considering the distance some of you will have to travel. If
week is not enough – stay and work two. Month. Years.
As long as you need to complete what you had started. Camping
grounds are unlimited as well as the plenty of edible seaweeds
and shells |
