Synopsis

Moderna galerija has a long-term relationship with the Livada elementary school, the school with the highest percent of non-Slovene pupils in the country. The third workshop was focused on creating a stop-motion animated film with mastering the entire process from making movable paper puppets to photographing and rendering images in an open-source computer program. The participants made a world map and all the animals that migrate shorter or longer distances. The materials they used were crayons and paper.

 

Since there is such an ethnically diverse group of pupils, we will organise activities that can complement their regular school lessons. In the school as well as in our museum we will organise four workshops to create social games from all parts of the world, especially from the countries the pupils come from. Participating pupils will choose and create the games themselves, with the assistance of their teacher from the Livada elementary school  Natalija Veselič Martinjak and the museum educators, Dana Terzić,  Maruša Meglič, Anja Radovič, together with the architect and activist Tanja Završki.  The working methodology stimulates co-learning instead of competition, creativity, spontaneity, self-confidence, a positive self-image, and persistence.

The workshops are part of a larger project New Mappings of Europe, supported by the Creative Europe Programme of the European Union.
