City
We work with a «spirit of place» phenomenon. Space for us is a synthesis of nature, human impact, history, visionary image layers and definitely people, who are currently living in the areas and those who used to live there.
Our mission is to find the place of action and the meaning of this action. Working with cities, we keep a sense of proportion. We do not intervent roughly, but opt for delicate instruments of interaction.
Research
We cooperate with historians, philosophers, anthropologists and other scientists. Together with an expert team we conduct in-depth research, which helps us to emphasize the uniqueness of each place we work in, as well as find its identity.
People
We rely on the whole-hearted communication with locals and help them take part in city renovations. This approach develops an emotional attachment and a sense of belonging to the homecity among local residents, and helps guests quickly become familiar at a new place.
Art
Using the language of public art* we can tell about the culture and history of the place and its connection to the present days. We increase the people’s attachment to their cities and help them to discover themselves through the culture and traditions of their native land.
*Public art is an art created in public spaces.
Team
We form and implement action programs to develop public spaces and local communities. We stay in the city during the project and supervise its implementation, educate and involve residents, discover local talents and and pass on experience to coordinators that will work in the area we stay in.
