The preparation phase for the second event is on!
Today, I put up some posters at my university Taik of the Aalto University, to invite students from all departments to stitch their dreams in a huge tablecloth, that will be installed in the exhibition space next to the elevators by the main entrance of the Aalto University School of Art and Design. I do not want to reveal too much yet, but something will be growing there, on the fertile soil of dreams!!!
The installation night will take place 20th of Sept., starting from 4 pm in the afternoon, and Sari from the Anarchistic Marttas will teach most basic stitching methods, so no preliminary skills are necessary. The event is mainly intended for Taik students, but everybody interested is welcome to join and talk about their dreams!
Free tea and cookies will be served to keep up the good spirit and brain activity.
The installation itself forms the second event of the 5-series, 2/5:GROW, and will be open to public from 21.-24.09.2010, during public opening hours (mon – thu 7.30am – 7pm, fri 7.30am – 6pm), but always viewable from the outside through the window. It will end with a special event involving harvesting and professors on Monday night, 27th of Sept. More information soon!
