Paper Play: A Storytelling Performance and Workshop with Junk Munkez
Join us for a street theatre performance followed by a hands-on workshop. Inspired by the 12th-century Japanese storytelling technique kamashibai, children will experience a live outdoor visual performance which recounts the stories of Geha as well as Abla and Antar. Following the performance, the creative duo Junk Munkez will lead a workshop where kids will make their own mobile paper theatre using upcycled materials. Participants will be able to take their project home.
This workshop is programmed in conjunction with the exhibition Les Mondes de Willy Aractingi.
Lea Kirdikian is a product designer with an avid interest in recycled materials. Xavier Baghdadi is an imaginative animator/illustrator. They teamed up to collaborate on an upcycling initiative called Junk Munkez, joining forces to conquer the local trash heaps through colorful eco-friendly products with eco-conscious ethics.
