CALL FOR ARTISTS

Overcoming the gap between art and life through site specific projects our goal is to provide a platform, where artists, architects, designers, and writers can come together in collaborative space. Creativity and experiential contact are declared human priorities, ‘the qualitative human being’ is defined as a social individual with a strong need for group relations and the necessity to work collaboratively as an alternative to a consumer based society.

In the context of the era’s desire for revolutionary upheaval, IRREVERSIBLE Project becoming a platform, a laboratory, experimenting with participatory works revolving around all mediums. The overall goal is to achieve an engagement with the individual and their relationship with the world. Noor Blazekovic
