Office

With our ambulating office we will create scenes for re-imagination of the city in various spaces in the city. 

We will invite children to define, re-imagine and come up with new possibilities for the chosen space, and then display these  new suggestions - both in our live gallery at the scene - but also on our blog.  By presenting the children’s re-imaginations of the space, we are questioning the current use of it - while presenting future visions of what it could be. But most important, we are questioning the adult way of thinking around the city and why that would be the only way to plan a city. 

There can’t only be effectiveness and what normally is considered ‘beauty’. There must also be places for other things - play, chaos, different forms of expression, an allowance of noise - or silence, of movement, an allowance of ineffectiveness and space for being a child, not only for children but for all! 

Every child participating in our workshops will receive their own copy of our Manifesto, which they can also use for continuing the process of re-imagining space elsewhere, all re-imaginations sent to us will be collected, saved, documented and published.
