About

Falling Walls- Looking Through Conflict Narratives in Cyprus, created cultural and artistic space for ethnically defined identity groups in Cyprus to express themselves and ultimately improve their understanding of one another. In particular, this project focused on bringing the voice of young artists into the social discourse as a means of challenging existing nationalist narratives. This was achieved through an interdisciplinary/ cross-sectoral artist in residence program that incorporates a custom peace education curriculum for social artists. Apart from creating space to connect with other young artists, participants were given the opportunity to reflect on critical challenges within their communities and express alternative perspectives that embrace positive social change.
