The workshops were organized in cooperation with Sarajevski Ratni Teatar, Tanzelarija (bosnian non-profit organization promoting dance in BiH) and German organization MitOst. Workshop coordinator was Joanna Zielińska (cantact: sarajevomindmap@gmail.com).
The aim of the workshops was to provide an opportunity to take part in a two weeks intensive art projects for adults, teenagers and kids with different cultural and social background.
Participants took part in dance, performing, film and integral dance workshops as well as in creative research about the city space. Some of the results were presented in Sarajevo War Theatre in September. On the 7th of September 2015 we had an opening of an exhibition „From Deja-Vu to Jamais-Vu: A photo story of Sarajevo“ (the result of Film Workshops with Bianca Lucas). On the 9th of September 2015 we had a premiere of a short performance "My Home" (the result of Theatre Workshops with Zulfikar Filandra).
The workshops were organized in two sections:
FIRST SECTION: 8-16 July

The workshop is open to contestants of all ages who have not yet undergone formal filmmaking or photography training. During the participants will be given a single, disposable camera. Their task is to use the 36 frames they have to create a personal photostory based on a meaningful personal experience, set up in an urban space of their choosing.
