Let’s create the visual identity of the GREEN E.Th.I.Cs GAME!
What is GREEN E.Th.I.Cs?
GREEN E.Th.I.Cs – Green Experience through Theatre Inspiring Communities is a Social and Community Theatre project winner of the Creative Europe Large Scale 2021 call and co-funded by the European Union. The project is developed by an interdisciplinary partnership of 18 organizing partners in 12 European countries, including theater companies, universities and research centers, large cultural centers, social bodies and public institutions.
GREEN E.Th.I.Cs aims to contribute to make our society more sustainable in terms of ecology and CO2 emissions, through artistic activities, and particularly theatre, while involving citizens using the arts. The project is developed through cultural initiatives of civic engagement aimed at creating awareness on the topic of climate change and promoting critical thinking and proactivity of European citizens with respect to the European Green Deal.
HOW? By the GREEN ETHICS GAME: an interactive theater show on environmental issues that will use the performing arts to promote critical thinking and awareness on the themes of the climate crisis. Between 2024 and 2025 year, the performance will tour 120 cities across Europe, reaching over 45.000 citizens. The premiere in Sofia, Bulgaria, will be at the end of July 2024.
✨ Calling visual artists from Bulgaria ✨
Collaborate with a diverse international team and unleash your creativity within the Green Ethics project! We’re on the lookout for 1 exceptional visual artist from Bulgaria to take part in an international group of young artists that will spend 5 days in Stackarp, Sweden, working together with a team of senior visual artists and peer international artists in order to create the visual identity of the GREEN E.Th.I.Cs.GAME in its LIVE and BOARD GAME version.
To play the game, you will need a dice and 5 categories. A game consists of 25-30 category squares that reveal interesting or scientific information through theatre. The categories design should reflect the project’s identity and the rest is up to you. We encourage you to use both traditional and digital media. However, you must bring your own equipment and create a final artwork in the form of an illustration, excluding photographs or moving media. Ready to leave your artistic imprint?
