When Time stood still - April
 
The activity was held on Saturday 2nd April 2016, at 13:00
 
 
''When TIME stood STILL''.... This year was a leap year, which means we gained an extra day in our gregorian calendar. (For more info. about leap year please visit http://www.timeanddate.com/date/leapyear.html)

Now imagine, what difference does this extra day make to our lives? does it make any difference at the end? time passes quickly and it is considered an ingenious invention by humans, but if it had to stop? or if we decided abolish time? what would the consequences be?...

How will this theme affect you as an artist? will your expressive art work reflect the freezing of time? will it challenge all the theories and reflect the absence of time? will you sing an endless note? or will you play the sound of time?....Will you sit down and wait for the frozen time to pass by and turn the experience into a piece of writing?.... It's up to you! we recommend you do some brainstorming prior the event, so as you set yourself ready... because the irony of it all is that time will still pass by...

OCCUPY - Expressive Artists Gathering event.
 
O.C.C.U.(Ï€)... Meaning Occupy. The philosophy behind the title is ''Occupying someone's mental abilities / intellect'', hence why the mathematical pi symbol instead of the ''py'' at the end of the word. 

Usually the term occupy refers to occupying a building or a site, but it can also affect Intelligence/knowledge which are one of the most powerful resources a human can achieve. We should never allow anyone to occupy our thoughts by opressing us, by leaving us in an ignorant state, or by mocking our intelligence. 
 
 

Activity Outcome:

 

work evolved around the thought of travelling, words which can be written but cannot be spoken, words which do not make sense, because sense can be percevied in different ways, work in relation to the aspects of the surrounding environment, by focusing in giving life to thoughts and transfer them onto paper, and work which evolved around the continous mental struggle against mathematics/logic.
