During the days of the Art Camp people work on intercultural written images. Together, people create small-format wedge frames with the material available. Using a brush, pen, pencil or other tools and natural material, people will write their own short texts, poems, word collages, etc. on the canvases to be created.The Art Camp is a combination of different aspects: It is about intercultural exchange. You will listen to daily presentations by volunteers about the countries and contexts they are from. It is also a food exchange as you always cook in groups in the evenings. And it is for sure about arts as you will be working on intercultural written images and in one workshop you will work with plaster and wires. At one point in the camp, the volunteer group will also have an exchange with local young people and additionally to this, there will also be the possibility to visit different museums during the camp. Arts is the medium of it all.
