Silent Family
creative workshop
con Mandra Cerrone
This workshop is aimed at expressing and making visible that complex inner architecture made up of the living and the dead members of our family that condition our existence and our relationships with others.
Researches in metagenealogy, on the family’s influence on us, provide the theoretical basis of this research.
A family tree is a love and hate story, a succession of unexpected encounters.
Stories that narrate how the roots intertwine in the union, nourishing the desire for a conscious offspring.
Art is the tool for this research: it raises new questions, causes unrest, brushes the mystery of the existence and opens to the wonder of its poignant beauty.
Any lack of consciousness is a source of dis-ease and a lack of beauty that finds its compensation in art. Beauty evolves us.
Artist and participant take care of a complex net of relationships, joined and allied on a journey of knowledge and of discovery.
