Workshop:Cycle 4 at MOCA-Tucson Saturday, May 29 @ 10am

May 25th, 2010

Mama/Baby/Dada workshop at MOCA-Tucson

This forth “cycle” is designed for children ages 3-6 and their parent(s) or guardian(s) in the process of nest making. Children are given materials and instructions to create a nest in, around and on top of their parent. Parents participate very minimally, allowing the children to control the outcome of the project, whatever that may be.  Children are encouraged to use this space to concretely or abstractly express their feelings around safety, home and family. The results are documented and incorporated into the long term visuals of the Mama/Baby/Dada universe.  Mama/Baby/Dada is an ongoing investigation into the blurred boundaries of work and play, between parent and child.
The first three cycles of this project dealt with transcription/repetition (ages 0-1) mapping, and mirroring (ages 1-4).

Snacks provided.  Please note this event will be videotaped.

    About M/B/D
    The parent-child relationship is one of constant compromise and often a vast imbalance of power. As we try navigate our children throughout their day, it is a constant give and take that creates the shifting road map of our world. In Mama/Baby/Dada we investigate the territories of work and play that parent and child inhabit, creating maps, transcriptions and legends in collaboration with our children. We invite parents and their children to participate in this ongoing series of map-making cycles and view how their work develops over time.
