Invitation "An intercultural Garden to grow with and to create with"
august, 2nd to august, 9th 2009 in Apold in Transylvania/Romania
www.tr-a-pold.net
We invite members of the association MitOst and other interested
people to join Âa garden-artistic project in the small romanian
village Apold.
The village and its Parish House
The village of Apold (German: Trappold) is 15 km south of Sighisoara
(germ. SchÃÃburg, hung. SegesvÃr) in southern Transylvania in
Romania. Apold was founded in the 13th century by German settlers,
the Transylvanian Saxons. Today the village counts over 800
inhabitants, almost all Romanians and Roma. The garden of the old
Parish house in Apold, which lost its original function as a result
of the immigration of the Transylvanian Saxons during the 20th
century and was untenanted Âfor some years, is huge and splendid.
Since three years, the local ÂAssociation casApold make the effort to
animate house and garden.
Agenda
Together with the participants, invited garden- and nature-artists
and villagers, we want to bring a new use to a part of the garden by
means Âof natural architecture and artistic gardening. Priority
objective is, Âto associate the components of nature and culture with
a direct Âbenefit in a Âcreative and artistic way. ÂThereby, we want
to create Âwith you a garden, whose basic structure consists of
living materials Âlike willow. In emerging niches solar showers and
water games are Âgoing to be constructed. ÂA fundamental component is
the joint work Âprocess. After seven days team accomplishment, the
work of art will be Âan impressive sight. Painting activities, a
movie night, village Âexploration and an excursion to the rural
surroundings are also Âincluded in the programme, moreover, the
nearby town Sighisoara, ÂUNESCO World Heritage Side can be visited.
We will celebrate the conclusion of the workshop with a garden-party.
Background
This water-willow-garden should be experienced by the guests of the
guesthouse both as a garden-artistic object and used as summer shower-
garden. The garden site will be amended by compost-toilets and Âis
understood as addition to the washing facilities of the Parish House.
Hereby, the sensitiveness and valuableness of the element water
should be demonstrated in a creative and garden-artistic way for
intercultural groups, which regular Âvisit the Guest House. It should
be shown, that alternative models for Âan economical Âbut still
effective use of water is possible without any sustainable pollution.
The workshop is embedded in the project âGreen trApPOLD - Public
green and open spaces in the rural area of Transylvania using Apold
as a modelâ. This Âproject of interdisciplinary quality Âinvolves
components Âof landscape architecture, care for historical monuments,
development of tourism, environmental education, nature conservation
and environmental protection Âas well as of inter cultural dialogue
and community Âbuilding.
