Fishing for metaphors in
the sea of life
Workshop for israeli, palestinian and european artists
August 20 – 30, 2007
Laboratoire Village Nomade
Estavayer-le-Lac, Switzerland
 |
Is a journey an appropriate metaphor for the stream of
life? Or maybe a river might be a better one, to symbolize the effect
of time through
life? Can we tell the story of our life in such way that its music,
which is
more than a sum of factual details, might create an image, a landscape
or a feeling?
We do believe that studying the narrative of our own life can bring a
new understanding and awareness. Learning the common elements of life
stories of a group of artists, can be a trigger for an artistic
process. The outcome of such process can be meaningful and enriching
for other people and the community as well. |
A group workshop of 12 young European, Palestinian and Israeli artists
(in their late 20's- early 30's active in various field of the visual
arts
and performing arts) in the special setting of La
Corbière might
be a adventure of renewal. In this special "oasis", researching the
differences and similarities of the participants' various narratives
can enable a sense
of trust and mutual understanding, which can stimulate the output of
artifacts that might be shared by others.

The Workshop:
A two weeks long workshop for the 12 participants will start on August
the 20th. They will work as a dynamic group for a week, in a
constructed way with trained group facilitators: Mohammed Egbaria and
Shuka Glotman (an artist himself). During the second week participants
will work artistically on their own and share their processing in
evening
sessions.
The end result will be celebrated in an open event for the public on
Thursday, August the 30th at 20:00 in La Corbière. The event
that will be designed and produced by the group might consist of an
exhibition, a theatrical act and a group discussion:
