KNOTS
An artistic project to activate urban gardens in Bucharest that questions the relationship between man and the natural environment through transmedia explorations. A multimedia approach that combines photography, video and sound with performative ritual practices.
What do we propose?
Let's contribute to the deconstruction of the man-nature dichotomy through a performative route that makes a metaphorical connection between several public gardens in Sector 6 of the Municipality of Bucharest: Greenhouse in Drumul Taberei Park, Grozavesti Park ,Opera Park, Malmaison Garden and VAGon, from the premises of the Malmaison Workshops. For four Sundays we will perform participatory performances in each of these gardens, discussions with the artists from the project and with invited artists who have started research related to the spaces and a multimedia installation. artists Alina Usurelu and Sabina Suru, together with Lala Misosniky, will collaborate to develop a performative and visual research that questions the concept of identity and observes the unexpected or uncanny similarities between humans and plants. This route will be studded with small artistic objects, long-term traces of the project, which will draw the attention of Bucharest residents to the nature they live with.
