Welcome to the Wall of Change. In a context of often overwhelming change, we want to explore what « change » means to people around the world. We asked them to illustrate this word using the technique of their choice (painting, drawing, collage, etc.), confronting them with a huge concept and a blank postcard. We’ve already collected over 100 postcards from 5 countries, and the adventure continues. The cards will be exhibited both physically in Ikaria, Greece, and digitally here. Symbols and patterns from different cultures will be analyzed.
Stay tuned for more!
