Using a variety of materials, this workshop invites families to share their ideas about the rights of all beings.
Do you know about Human Rights? What about animal rights? And the rights of plants?
What rights do all living beings share?
To mark the 50th anniversary of the Portuguese Constitution and celebrate the life of all living beings, artist Maja Escher invites us to create a set of flags bearing the guiding principles of a Constitution for All Living Beings. Using fabrics dyed with earth pigments, sewing machines, scissors, hot-glue guns and a wealth of imagination, families are invited to contribute their own ideas to a collective artistic installation of flags and banners.
Participation in this activity can be done at any time within the indicated schedule.
