The first camp after the pandemic, after two years without personal encounters and joint artistic debates, focuses on encounters as a political and artistic act. The approximately 120 young participants will return to the direct camp for the first time in two years Contact with each other, with artists from the field of
urban art and with the city as an art and meeting place. The Corona years were lost years, especially for young people. Almost without physicality, people went to school, attended university, and did theater – online and without direct encounters. No extreme experiences, no parties, no singing, no dancing,
no art – youth without expression. Artists from the fields of dance, fine arts and relational art are invited to join the participants in workshops and actions around the Consoltheater to make the body visible again, the voice audible again and art relevant again. Among others, the deaf hip-hop dancer and choreographer Dodzi Dougban, who communicates and dances without spoken words without hearing the music, the visual artist Folke Köbberling, who develops intervention models for urban space, where she repurposes existing structures and urban architecture in a subtle and humorous way, or the street artist Ausrine Pudzevyte (I’m Aube), who leaves her works on walls all over the world, artistically restores urban space and encounters with oneself and other city dwellers with the participants conquer.
An active part of the camp are former Pott- or Europefiction participants of the last 10 years, who
accompany the camp as mentors and artists, actively organize it and help to develop and implement artistic ideas.
