THE ART PLAYGROUND SPACE

Who are we? We are The ART Playground!

The ART Playground functions as a platform that showcases physical work by independent, unrepresented or unknown artists, underground performers and creatives of all types.It operates as a pop-up one day immersive, diy experimental art festival and it is structured in a non- hierarchical way as an arena of performances where the traditional boundaries of art are being challenged. For The Palace residency, we would like to propose the creation of a physical space that allows participants to explore different facets of playfulness. You never know what will happen in the Playground; you can find a space between control and chaos, in which the unexpected breathes unlimited possibilities. We would like to give all the participants the opportunity to engage and get to know each other through facilitating this ludic environment.

As Plato said: You will learn more about someone in an hour of play then in a year of conversation. We want to know you all by inviting you to join our “ Pallace Playground”.

It would exist as a safe space within the event, where everyone can come and experiment, as well as adding their own creations to a sanctuary of Creativity and Playfulness. We would encourage everyone to bring their creations within The Playground Arena in order to open a dialogue between the art and the audience.

"The Ancient Portal” is meant for teleporting people back to themselves through the act of creating a safe space together. Building a portal to enter & explore new perceptions of the reality. Little throwback to the times when we were all kiddos constructing forts here & there. Ambient sounds. Soft spaces & sensory experiences. All with a mission to stop, rest & reflect.

- building a fort together

- ceremony with ambient sounds, sensory experiences & intuitive movement performance

- huge sleepover with ambient sounds (all night experience) "

Seeking: someone who plays ambient music, meditation guides, lights person, installation builders
