Snow-white Clouds

Pera Enabled

In this workshop, we are inspired by the clouds, an important part of the Earth’s atmosphere. We imagine that we are lying on the grass, watching the clouds, and then transfer the shapes, objects and animals they display as the wind blows onto our drawings.

Following the instructor-guided tour of the 17th Istanbul Biennial, this workshop, designed for students with special needs, aims to help these students develop hand and eye coordination and fine motor skills.

The Greek god Apollo and his son Asklepios presided over the realm of medicine and healing. Apollo was also the god of light and sun, whose solar symbolism and association with medicine would become linked to Christ the Physician, and the resurrected.
