Car Deconstruction
xx CITY OF GIRLS
Invitation for participation in workshop and performance of artist Dina Rončević: Car Deconstruction / Friday, October 7th - Sunday, October 9th at Secondary Vocational and Technical School Bežigrad – Ljubljana.
At the workshop/performance, the artist and a group of inquisitive girls disassemble a car. The goal of a three-day deconstruction is not to fully disassemble a car but rather find and take an autonomous position. The girls are confronted with unfamiliar tools and materials, the curious eyes of the audience and new possibilities of using their own physical skills and strengths.
Workshop is intended for girls aged ten to fourteen.
No prior knowlede needed. Workshop will be held in English, or Croatian or Serbian language and it's free of charge. Performers / participants talk on Sunday at 3 pm.
Send your application to [email protected] until September 20th.
Car Deconstruction is a durational performance and a workshop including the participation of girls aged ten to fourteen. Other than the actual disassembling, the car deconstruction performance aims to deconstruct the social categories of identity, gender issues and gender roles. Dina Rončević was confronted with the issue of socially determined gender roles in her professional retraining when as a woman she found herself in a distinctively male environment. Instead of being defeated by the obstacles, she found another way out – creativity.
