“Once upon a time, there was a land – where heavens reached all down to earth, and the invisible sometimes turned visible…”

Every summer since 2002, I have spent a couple of weeks together with groups of people with functional variations. Some participants return from year to year, others are newcomers. Each time, we have explored different artistic techniques and themes framed in an evolving story. Paintings and drawings, papier-mâché figures, masks, embroideries and concrete casts have gathered day by day, expressing people’s emotions and perceptions; forming a language, of sorts, to tell the stories from the Land of Mir – where the invisible sometimes turns visible.

There are so many ways of being human. And every single one expands humanity as a whole.
