„Koga stvorim bude živ: Ekscentrici i moćne mašine“

After the presentation of the sculpture *Čovjek Som* and the concept of the mobile sculptures *Travelers*, first-year high school students were introduced to the role of the artist. Working in small teams, they developed ideas, communication skills, and addressed artistic challenges, particularly construction and structural issues, using a recycling technique with cardboard, paper, and tape. While working with tools, they learned how impulsiveness and hasty actions can hinder the creative process, drawing parallels with school and everyday life.

The participants mastered the basics of the technique, developed patience and collaboration, and successfully shaped sculptures, assigning them identities: **Hendi**, **Keršme**, and **D.D. Djelo**, through which they expressed feelings of confusion, the need for communication, and the desire to be noticed. The works will be exhibited at **Močvara** as part of the **Evening of High School Creativity**, where the creators will present their pieces and engage with the works of others.

Art workshop **“Who I Create Comes to Life: Eccentrics and Mighty Machines”** in collaboration with **Močvarni Laboratory, URK**, as part of the project **“Culture in Action 6”** at the **School for Installation and Metal Construction – ŠMIMK, Zagreb, 8.5.2025** (duration: 3 hours)

Workshop creators and facilitators: Margareta Vidmar and Esox Lucius Ido (Dražen Pavalić)
