Hanging frames used to be focal points of social life in backyards or high-rise tower blocks. Today they are rust-eaten, wobbly structures that have lost all of their former functions. In her artistic action, Małgorzata Markiewicz uses this unique relic of the past and attempts to temporarily resuscitate its role as an inviting playground where children’s imagination can run wild — the role that has been taken over by social media and electronic toys.
Each participant in this event will create their own puppet and perform in an improvised theatre; apart from this, participants will be asked to sew some fabric fruit and vegetables, and to search the surroundings for other goods that could be sold in their local grocery. They will also have the opportunity to put forward their own creative ideas for using this space.
