PROJECT
Recipients: people with disabilities

“Trying, finding, meeting within “the making process”. We begin by defining the ground we will sow with our work – says Roman Wegmann – a place where we concretize experiences of life and dreams. A place and time for freedom. A place and time to question our place in society. What if society proposes/ imposes patterns on us that we cannot fit into? What reasons drive us to do, think and live? In mutual respect and care we will define topics and basic conditions from which we will work together with the people involved in this project, always keeping in mind a sentence by Augusto Boal: “Act, don`t discuss!”.
