This year’s workshop titled “DOMΑ: From Plato’s cave to modern ‘reality’” (July 02-12 2021) set as its creative basis the simulation of the allegory of the cave today, through a collaborative creative artistic process aimed at highlighting the experiences, views and artistic pursuits of its participants; All the more so in a present, seemingly dystopian, due to the pandemic and the upheaval it has brought into our lives, but also creatively triggering.
Which is the power and what’ s the purpose of an ever-increasing self-exposure in virtual space?

A new form of 'Panopticon', in which the captives remain in the center, with the ability to look through their cages and be observed by their surroundings, but remain locked.
Don't forget to leave a commemt...
