WANDERLAND Platform

Patrycja Plich

The Global Art of Mixing – continental drift – human drift – nomadic man of speed in chains of his feet – Liberated Map – New Geography

Wanderland platform is a long-term cycle of activities that widely map out the existence of transcultural communities in different geopolitical contexts. The threads taken up in here have their origin in the history of the African Center in Poznan (Poland) in the 1990s. The project follows the impact of the African Center’s activities on the possibility of building an inclusive society that creates a cross-border connections.

The whole process is based on the idea of free wandering – discovering and experiencing reality beyond systemically established boundaries. It’s an issue of border places – places between places (disputed territories) and places between meanings (transcultural communities). The project reflects on question how in this context present multi-layered society can emerge. The social space undergoes constant translation. Here it is referred to an issue of landmark and its double meaning, both in the geopolitical and metaphorical sense – understood as a turning point. This is a metaphor for building new concepts defining a complex drifting society – systemically entangled, but also offering bottom-up alternatives.

The main geographical references for the Wanderland platform are:

Poznań (history and extension of the African Center)

Marseille (a buffer place between Europe and Africa)

Dakar (research and cooperation with local creators)

Art is not a Crime - L’auto-graffé by Benoit - 50x35 le comble du graffeur c’est d’être lui-même graffé. Ce soldat de l’art est pris à son propre jeu mais n’est-ce pas cela que l’on attend de lui? Quand on donne, il faut savoir recevoir ! C’est cet équilibre qui doit être notre moteur. Inspirez-vous et laissez les uns et les autres en faire autant de vous-même ... chacun y trouvera son bonheur. #stencilartwork #pochoir #pochoiriste #portraitgallery #portraitart #artoftheday #aerofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #popart #pochoirs #artengagé #engagedart,#messageart #stencilartists #stencilartist #artisnotcrime #instaart #stencils #stencilart #stencil #peace #spraypaint #soldieroflove #artinspires #artspray #warart #messageart #menart #stencilarts #stencilartworks https://www.instagram.com/p/CCRQvqcFbe8/?igshid=1iilcr7m0hmkt

Back home in my dtla hood after an amazing retreat in Tuscany with incredible teachings and meditation. Now as the events around us take an even more drastic turn it's time for unified action. Eat a good breakfast and do something, anything to save our planet and our country. Meditate, call your Congresspeople and governor. Eat healthy, buy organic, support local farmers and yes, sign petitions. And be sure to take care of yourself and notice the divine. We all need sustenance in these times. Tell someone you love how much you appreciate them. And have an amazing, empowered day 🌎💕 #dtla #🌎 #climatechange #dearivanka #350 #greenpeace #dtlaartist #resist #meditate #mindfulness #berlinstagram #politicalart #engagedart #selfcare #empowered #trump #ivankatrump #wakeup #notimetowaste #breakfast (at Arts District Los Angeles)

METEN IS WETEN (MEASURING IS KNOWING) … LUNA BENGOECHEA AT DE FABRIEK*

All images by Gemma Medina, 2018.

Luna Bengoechea has modelled an artistic language that uses seeds, grains, and other botanical elements to express her ideas. She uses the aesthetic experience of her installations to interpret, translate, and draw us closer to the macrostructures of the food market that would remain otherwise hidden and which show the other side of the ethical and aesthetic systems that govern society in its current neoliberal framework. As consumers, this positions us as the last links in a chain of which we are a part, whether consciously or unconsciously. In either case, we seem to have a very little leeway. Or do we? We are like the pawns on a chessboard or like the seeds: the simplest elements are at the same time the origin of everything.

Riding on the train from Eindhoven to Rotterdam, one passes through an almost-continuous landscape of fields. Most of the crops grown here are not destined for human consumption. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), more than 70 percent of the cereals and grains harvested in ‘developed countries’ are produced to fatten farm animals. Jean Meyer, a nutritionist at Harvard University, says that reducing meat production by only 10 percent would yield enough grain to feed at least 60 million people. Based on this data, Bengoechea, during her residency at De Fabriek, has investigated the production of corn as fodder at the local, European, and global levels, developing a reflection that starts with Eindhoven’s agricultural context and which has evolved at De Fabriek, because its space is similar to those of large greenhouses and industrial agricultural farms. Infected by the experimental spirit of the space, the artist has expanded her methodology by introducing new materials, broadening references, and addressing for the first time from the botanical the problem of consumption and production of meat on a large scale.

Banksy playing hide and seek in Paris. Thanks to @butterflyartnews I've discovered this one, some part in the 11th district in Paris... before a few funny people come to cover it up in plexiglas or remove it to sell it to an auction house. Love Banksys engagement and political views. He reminds us how important it is to stay connected to the 68 values and to stay "revolted". #banksy #hideandseek #banksyinparis #streetart #butterflyartnews #mai68 #stencil #paris #graffitiart #bleklerat #tribute #findbanksy #revolution #engagedart

Benoit - La fleur au fusil - l’Art n’est pas un crime - 48x33cm On qualifiait ainsi les soldats qui allaient combattre pendant la première guerre mondiale insouciants du sort qui leur était réservé. Ces soldats, sûrs de leur victoire ramassaient des fleurs en chemin pour orner les canons de leurs armes. Notre « soldat » est un guerrier d’un genre nouveau. Son arme, son pouvoir de graffer, sa façon de penser et surtout son envie de le montrer. Une idée, un bout de mur ou de carton dans un endroit public ou privé et c’est parti. Chacun a droit à son interprétation, chacun peut y voir ce qu’il veut, chacun peut aimer ou détester ... c’est finalement là que se situe la liberté. On peut être touché, choqué, émerveillé mais finalement c’est nous qui décidons. Finalement nous sommes les vrais acteurs, les coupables et non les victimes, l’instrument selon notre propre volonté de ce que nous offre l’artiste. Laissons à l’Art le don de nous inspirer mais n’oublions pas que nous sommes seuls maîtres de nos choix. #artengagé ,#engagedart ,#messageart ,#consciousartist ,#stencilartist ,#stencilartwork ,#artisnotcrime ,#streetart ,#urbanart ,#instaart ,#stencils ,#stencilart ,#stencil ,#peace ,#pochoir ,#artisnotacrime ,#graffiti ,#spraypaint ,#peaceful ,#artinspires ,#artspray ,#warart ,#portrait ,#portraitart ,#gunflower ,#artmessage ,#messageart ,#stencilartworks ,#stencil_art ,#pochoirart ,#pochoiriste https://www.instagram.com/p/CB_KwgBl6ko/?igshid=1vmtcrx8atwti

#Repost @faeriebearart (@get_repost) ・・・ In recognition of the current attempt to destroy Bear Ears National Park, I want to ask people to please support the Protect Bear Ears Inter-Tribal Coalition to protect the land: https://bearsearscoalition.org/. . Especially at this time of year I wanted to release something in celebration of Indigenous power, so last week I released a #ProcessPost on this Blue Heron piece with a quote from Loren Cannon "Recognizing that we each come to understand the world within a particular context is vitally important. Figuring out what to do with that information is even more so." Designs on this piece come from designs created by handmade textiles by Indigenous artists in Wiyot (http://www.wiyot.com/), Hoopa (https://www.hoopa-nsn.gov/), and Yurok (http://www.yuroktribe.org/) Indigenous Nations. . [Image description: A scanned, high quality picture of my Blue Heron ink zentangle artwork with a quote from Loren Cannon, " Recognizing that we each come to understand the world within a particular context is vitally important. Figuring out what to do with that information is even more so.," worked into the piece. The text "Blue Heron" is artistically drawn in large font outside the animal drawing. There is also a watermark in the image "Faerie Bear Art" and an additional watermark below the image "etsy.com/shop/FaerieBearArt".] .
