Participants apply embroidery techniques such as embroidery punch on a pre-designed pattern, needle felting, appliqué with leather pieces, wood beadwork, and Ghiordes knotting on a pattern composed of visuals from the Isabel Muñoz: A New Story exhibition. While working on their fabrics, participants immerse themselves in the enchanting photographs of Göbeklitepe, Karahantepe, and Sayburç, discovering the meanings and contemporary uses of the animal symbols present in the photographs.
Note: No prior embroidery experience is required

I think it was Frank Zappa – though others claim it was Laurie Anderson – who said in an interview that ‘writing on music is much like dancing on architecture’.
In 1962 Philip Corner, one of the most prominent members of the Fluxus movement, caused a great commotion in serious music circles when during a performance entitled Piano Activities he climbed up onto a grand piano and began to kick it while other members of the group attacked it with saws, hammers and all kinds of other implements.
Between 1963 and 1966 Andy Warhol worked at making film portraits of all sorts of characters linked to New York art circles. Famous people and anonymous people were filmed by Andy Warhol’s 16 mm camera, for almost four minutes, without any instructions other than ‘to get in front of the camera’.
