Winner of the REMONDIS Light Award 2021, “The Green Busters” is a participatory project that utilises animation to promote a sustainable mindset in everyday life.

With the valuable assistance of students from the Christophorus School of Essen, we explored creative ways to breathe new life into discarded items. Participants translated their ideas and insights into a stop-motion installation featuring swinging rhythms, whimsical characters, and vibrant atmospheres during the workshop. The result, presented on the façade of the Marktkirche, was a “tradigital” journey toward a better and greener world.

PARTICIPATORY PROJECT

“Stopmotion2Videomapping” is a hands-on workshop engaging groups of primary school children in creative activities and innovative crafts. Traditional animation and re-projection technologies turned out to be excellent tools for tapping into the playful imagination of children and crafting distinctive narratives. The workshop also offered valuable insights into addressing critical issues with the kind of gentle illumination that only children can provide.
