After our journeys to Hungary, Czechia and Greece we have minds full of memories, bags full of incredible objects and our hard disk full of photos, video and audio recordings. And still, the TURNINGPOINTS project is right in the middle. In October there will be one more workshop week in Germany and then, in November, all the results and experiences of the year's various workshops come together in the multimedial installation. That means, we are facing even more interesting situations and meetings, which is something we are very much looking forward to.
For now, everything that's left to say, is: Enjoy the hot summer!

By now the greek way of living truely is the custom. Everybody is working in a good temper, as relaxed as ambitious, under the blue sky and a hot sun.
Besides dealing with the personal Turningpoints through different art forms an intercultural exchange just happens: Germans speak some Greek, Greek some German, together they are boating at sea, sitting in front of computers, dancing in circles, watching photos and enjoying delicious greek-german food.

The day began with smily faces and first impressions in the three workshops: In an old, little school up on a mountain Chrisuoula made her dancers sweat through greek folklore. Frauke and the participants of the experimental sculpture workshop found inspiration from the uncountable objects in the GER-MANI area. Thanks to patient translating Elisabeth was able to step into the stop-motion world with her greek participants.
In the afternoon all got together inside in a familiar circle, while there was a surprising thunder storm outside. A Tennis ball, photos, puppets, a necklace, a coin and greek-german shoes filled the room with biographic snapshots.
