SUMMARY:To The Sea With Her Names
DESCRIPTION:Mixed Media Exhibition: A group show by six Asian Artists \n“A name could be signified by a memory and in turn prompt a story\, it can compose identity\, or conjure character. This project’s aim is a group exhibition\, in a common site in Cyprus\, but also a name that has existed for hundreds of years\, thinking about the possibilities of resonating with foreign perspectives.\nArtists from diverse backgrounds will engage with local communities and look beyond borders. The artists not only work in local contexts\, but also trying to reply to the contemporary dilemmas common to the global.\nArtworks begin from the relationships developed in Cyprus\, exploring various dimensions like the role of the sea\, geopolitics\, historical diversity\, local industry\, and traditional crafts. From the artist’s memories and experiences in his own social relationships\, he summons different stories.\nThese stories look at the relationships and tensions hidden by the grand narrative\, such as the emotions erased by history\, the time lost in the wear\, the determination to preserve life in the conflicts and Political wrangling\, and so on. They are ambiguous\, irrelevant to directivity\, but discordant sounds\, ubiquitous\, and real\, mixed.\nThe repeated waves are like the cancellation and return of history\, and we hope to add diverse faces to the ocean of history through the flexibility and imagination characteristic of art.” – Shaoan Huang

SUMMARY:Museum of the Moon
DESCRIPTION:Το Museum of the Moon είναι ένα έργο τέχνης του Βρετανού καλλιτέχνη Luke Jerram που περιοδεύει σε όλο τον κόσμο.\nΜε διάμετρο επτά μέτρων\, το έργο αποτελείται από εικόνες υψηλής ανάλυσης (120dpi) από το Επιστημονικό Κέντρο της ΝΑSA. Σε κλίμακα περίπου 1:500\,000\, κάθε εκατοστόμετρο της φωτιζόμενης σφαιρικής εγκατάστασης αντιπροσωπεύει 5 χιλιόμετρα της επιφάνειας του φεγγαριού. \nΤο Μουσείο του Φεγγαριού καθώς ταξιδεύει από τοποθεσία σε τοποθεσία\, συλλέγει νέες μουσικές συνθέσεις\, αντιδράσεις\, προσωπικές ιστορίες και μύθους γύρω από αυτο\, ενώ παράλληλα αναδεικνύει τα πιο πρόσφατα επιστημονικά δεδομένα σχετικά με το φεγγάρι. \nΗ εγκατάσταση προσφέρει μια πολυσύνθετη εμπειρία και συνοδεύεται από ηχητική/μουσική υπόκρουση από τον βραβευμένου με BAFTA και Ivor Novello συνθέτη Dan Jones.\nΟ Luke Jerram ζεί στο Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο\, αλλά εργάζεται διεθνώς απο το 1997. Οι εξαιρετικές δημιουργίες του περιλαμβάνουν γλυπτά\, εγκαταστάσεις και ζωντανά έργα τέχνης ενώ είναι ιδιαίτερα γνωστός παγκοσμίως για τα μεγάλης κλίμακας δημόσια έργα του. Τα έργα του Jerram τα οποία έχουν ενθουσιάσει και εμπνεύσει ανθρώπους σε όλο τον κόσμο\, εξελίσσονται παράλληλα μεταξύ τους δημιουργώντας ένα διαφορετικό και μοναδικό αφήγημα στους θεατές. \n​Περισσότερες πληροφορίες σχετικά με το έργο στην ιστοσελίδα: my-moon.org \nΠληροφορίες για το Μουσείο Φεγγαριού στην Λάρνακα στην ιστοσελίδα onceinabluemoon.eu \nΣΑΒΒΑΤΟ 18 KAI KΥΡΙΑΚΗ 19 – ΤΟ ΜΟΥΣΕΙΟ ΤΟΥ ΦΕΓΓΑΡΙΟΥ ΔΕΝ ΘΑ ΠΡΑΓΜΑΤΟΠΟΙΗΘΕΙ \n—— \nMuseum of the Moon is a touring artwork by UK artist Luke Jerram. Measuring seven metres in diameter\, the moon features 120dpi detailed NASA imagery of the lunar surface. At an approximate scale of 1:500\,000\, each centimetre of the internally lit spherical sculpture represents 5km of the moon’s surface.  \nOver its lifetime\, the Museum of the Moon will be presented in a number of different ways both indoors and outdoors\, so altering the experience and interpretation of the artwork. As it travels from place to place\, it will gather new musical compositions and an ongoing collection of personal responses\, stories and mythologies\, as well as highlighting the latest moon science. \nThe installation is a fusion of lunar imagery\, moonlight and surround sound composition created by BAFTA and Ivor Novello award winning composer Dan Jones. Each venue also programmes their own series of lunar inspired events beneath the moon.\n​\nLuke Jerram’s multidisciplinary practice involves the creation of sculptures\, installations and live arts projects. Living in the UK but working internationally since 1997\, Jerram has created a number of extraordinary art projects which have excited and inspired people around the globe. Jerram has a set of different narratives that make up his practice which are developing in parallel with one another. He is known worldwide for his large-scale public artworks.\nMore information on the artwork can be found at: my-moon.org \nSATURDAY 18TH & SUNDAY 19TH – MUSEUM OF THE MOON WILL NOT TAKE PLACE \nInformation for the Museum of the Moon in Larnaca: onceinabluemoon.eu \nBringing the Moon to you \nOrganisers:\nOnce In a Blue Moon\nWonderdots \nSponsors:\nAsus Plus\nEdge Development\nScaffolding Solutions\nBritish High Commission Nicosia \nSupporters:\nLarnaca Biennale\nLarnaca Municipality\nLarnaca Act \nPartners:\nCyprus Space Exploration Organisation \nEvent Supporter and Partner : Blue Moon Brewing Company & 10.10 COSMOS \nCo-commissioned by a number of creative organisations brought together by Luke Jerram and Norfolk & Norwich Festival.

SUMMARY:Home Away From Home
DESCRIPTION:“What is it that constitutes a home\, beyond just bricks and mortar? Over the years and around the world\, we ‘ve grappled back and forth with the many meanings of this word. For this biennale\, I ‘ve set myself the task of unpacking notions of home and belonging – ideas that have shaped our lives and identities since birth. It will be filled with stories\, some particular\, some entirely universal\, which all give rise to our sense of self. I ‘m thrilled to extend the invitation to artists\, creators and makers of all varieties to join the conversation; submitting new propositions or revisiting existing work that considers this important theme.” Yev Kravt\, Curator Larnaca Biennale 2023 \nThis year’s curational theme\, “Home Away from Home”\, conceived by curator Yev Kravt prompted artists from around the world to submit their proposals\, resulting in the selection of 101 artworks that encapsulate the essence of the theme.\nLarnaca Biennale 2023 invites you to a kaleidoscope of diverse artistic stories weaving tales of identity\, belonging\, displacement\, and the quest for home in our evolving world. \nExhibition Venues \nMunicipal Art Gallery  entrance free\nMonday – Friday 9:00-13:00 & 15:00-18:00\nSaturday 10:00-13:00 & 15:30-18:30\nSunday 15:30-18:30\n→ Map \nPierides Museum entrance free\nMonday- Thursday 09:00-16:00\nFriday 09:00-13:00\nSaturday 09:00-13:00 & 15:30-18:30\nSunday 15:30-18:30\n→ Map \nLarnaka Municipal Market entrance free \nMonday- Sunday 10:00 – 18:00\n1st Floor staircase and elevator access\n→ Map \nEVOHK – Artist Run Space entrance free\nMonday- Friday 9:00-13:00 & 15:00 – 18:00\nSaturday 10:00-13:00 & 15:30-18:30\nSunday 15:30-18:30\n→ Map \nLarnaka Medieval Castle entrance €2.50\nMonday – Friday 08:00-17:00\nSaturday – Sunday 09:30-17:00\n→ Map \nThe Living Room entrance free * MAIN INFO CENTER\nMonday – Sunday 10:00-18:00\n→ Map

SUMMARY:Cosmic Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Do not miss this keynote\, on how art enables us to engage with abstract scientific concepts\, from atoms to distant black holes\, beyond our sensory perception. \nJan Swierkowski\, the founder of Instytut B61\, an international collective bridging the realms of art and science\, will delve into the profound impact of these interactions. He’ll shed light on how these encounters can be transformative\, offering experiences that can reshape our perspective on life and philosophy. This shift in thinking is akin to the transformative Overview Effect that astronauts experience. \nDuring his presentation\, Swierkowski will elucidate his experimental approach\, which harmonizes art and science using cognitive metaphor theory and conceptual blending. Moreover\, he will guide us through the process of establishing successful artistic residencies. These residencies serve as collaborative spaces where artists and scientists convene to explore and translate the nuances of the Invisible World. \nJAN ŚWIERKOWSKI is a curator\, artist\, futurologist and astronomer. He graduated from astrophysics and concluded a dissertation in cultural studies. He’s been a recipient of scholarships from the Portuguese government (FCT) and the Polish Ministry of Culture and National Heritage. He holds the title of Honorary Ambassador at the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń and is the winner of the Award of the Minister of Science and Higher Education Popularizer of Science in Poland 2017. \nCombine this Keynote presentation by visiting on Monday the 13th the Cinematic 360 VR experience “Stellar Entanglement” by Instytut B61 hosted as well at Youth Makerspace Larnaka. \nREGISTER NOW

SUMMARY:Home/ Hope
DESCRIPTION:International Guest Artists Exhibition. Part of the Parallel Events Program of Larnaca Biennale 2023. \nVisiting hours until November 24th\nMonday Closed\nTuesday – Friday 12:00 – 20:00\nSaturday – Sunday 10:00 – 20:00 \nHOME/HOPE is a capsule exhibition centred on notions of belonging\, identity and our dreams for the future at the Larnaca Biennale in Cyprus. Curated by Yev Kravt\, this exhibition features 30 guest artists\, all exploring the intricate theme of “home” from diverse perspectives. \nJust a single letter differentiates home from hope; but does the notion of home exist without hope\, and can hope truly surface without a place to call home? The subject of belonging opens up a myriad of stories\, told in a multitude of ways. Home is a world we create\, where we can unapologetically be ourselves. Hope\, meanwhile\, speaks to a world set free\, brimming with possibilities. Whether our aspirations are personal or collectively shared\, our inherent ambition to strive forward and evolve ushers in visions of a brighter tomorrow. \nHOME/HOPE explores these intertwined notions\, telling tales through the works of 30 selected artists. The exhibition takes cues from several pressing questions: how might the definition of home be changing? What constitutes hope? And crucially\, how do these separate concepts reinforce one another? \nThe exhibition includes contributions by 30 visual artists\, including: Andreas Kalli\, Armen Ter-Mkrtchyan\, Aukje Dekker with SEXYLAND\, Benji Boyadgian\, Danae Stratou\, Cengiz Bodur\, Droog x KesselsKramer\, George Stamenov\, Gohar Martirosyan\, Guy Ben-Ner\, HovHar\, Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige\, Maria Touloupou\, Melanie Bonajo\, Neo Matloga\, Olgaç Bozalp\, Pet Liger\, Raida Adon\, Rosana Palazyan\, Selma Selman\, Silvina Der-Meguerditchian\, Slavs and Tatars\, Sunny Dolat\, Tal Shochat\, Tania El Khoury\, Turan Aksoy\, Vyacheslav-Yura Useinov\, World Citizen Government and Yves Sambu. \nHome in this exhibition is not merely a physical space\, but an emotional\, cultural\, and sometimes virtual territory. It can be a refuge\, a distant dream\, an origin story\, or even an illusion. It’s often a place we go to find solace. In a globalised world\, our sense of home is fluid\, elusive and rich with potential. The HOME/HOPE exhibition spotlights new modes of (co)existence – and the boundless imagination that unites us\, wherever we may be.  \nSpecial performances in the exhibition space. Aukje Dekker and the SEXYLAND Collective will perform The Sea by Night (14-15 October)\, while Raida Adon will perform during the opening (14 October). Tania El Khoury’s performance – As Far As My Fingertips Take Me takes place on the weekend of 14-15 October.  \nSupport\nThe exhibition is supported by the Larnaca Biennale\, Foundation Brave New Works\, Ministry of Education\, Science Culture and Sport of the Republic of Armenia\, Embassy of Armenia to Cyprus\, Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and Philippossian & Pilossian Foundation\, ART For the World\, Armenian Arts Council in Yerevan and EMST  National Museum of Contemporary Art in Athens (ΕΜΣΤ). \nOfficial Website

SUMMARY:The Home That Waits - Poetry Night
DESCRIPTION:“The house where I was born even if strangers step on it\nit is a spook and invites me\, it is a soul and awaits me.»\nKostis Palamas \n«Τὸ σπίτι ποὺ γεννήθηκα κι ἂς τὸ πατοῦν οἱ ξένοι\,\nστοιχειὸ εἶναι καὶ μὲ προσκαλεῖ· ψυχή\, καὶ μὲ προσμένει.»\nΚωστής Παλαμάς \nΤο Διεθνές Φεστιβάλ Ποίησης Λάρνακας πολιτογραφείται σταδιακά ως το “σπίτι” της ποίησης στη νοτιανατολική Ευρώπη και όχι μόνον. \nΜέλη της Οργανωτικής και Επιστημονικής Επιτροπής του Φεστιβάλ συμμετέχουν στην εκδήλωση ” ΤΟ ΣΠΙΤΙ ΠΟΥ ΠΡΟΣΜΕΝΕΙ ” της Βiennale Λάρνακας 2023 με ποιήματά τους εμπνευσμένα από τη θεματική της biennale ( Home Away from Home) αλλά και με την παρουσίαση ποιημάτων μεγάλων Ελλήνων ποιητών (Οδυσσέα Ελύτη\, Γιώργου Σεφέρη\, Γιάννη Ρίτσου\, Κωνσταντίνου Π. Καβάφη\, Τάσου Λειβαδίτη Βύρων Λεοντάρη\, Θεοδόση Νικολάου κ.ά.). \nΤο “σπίτι”\, σύμβολο της αμετακίνητης παιδικής ηλικίας\, πολιτισμού αλλά και πανεθνικής ομοψυχίας\, εμπνέει και καθοδηγεί σε έναν τόπο βασανισμένο ιστορικά και σηματοδοτεί ταυτόχρονα τις γενναίες και ουσιαστικές αποφάσεις που καλούμαστε να πάρουμε σε κοινωνικό και πολιτικό επίπεδο. Δικό μας πιστεύω πως ο πολιτισμός και οι εκδηλώσεις του δεν συνιστούν μία ανέμελη περίοδο ξενοιασιάς\, αλλά συγκροτούν τον τρόπο για την αλλαγή του παραδείγματος στις σχέσεις και την αρμονική συμβίωση μεταξύ των λαών. \nΤριαντάφυλλος Η. Κωτόπουλος\nΠρόεδρος Διεθνούς Φεστιβάλ Ποίησης Λάρνακας\nΕλένη Αρτεμίου-Φωτιάδου\nΚαλλιτεχνική Διευθύντρια Διεθνούς Φεστιβάλ Ποίησης Λάρνακας \nPoetry Night is in greek \nReserve Your Spot

SUMMARY:Home/ Hope
DESCRIPTION:International Guest Artists Exhibition. Part of the Parallel Events Program of Larnaca Biennale 2023. \nVisiting hours until November 24th\nMonday Closed\nTuesday – Friday 12:00 – 20:00\nSaturday – Sunday 10:00 – 20:00 \nHOME/HOPE is a capsule exhibition centred on notions of belonging\, identity and our dreams for the future at the Larnaca Biennale in Cyprus. Curated by Yev Kravt\, this exhibition features 30 guest artists\, all exploring the intricate theme of “home” from diverse perspectives. \nJust a single letter differentiates home from hope; but does the notion of home exist without hope\, and can hope truly surface without a place to call home? The subject of belonging opens up a myriad of stories\, told in a multitude of ways. Home is a world we create\, where we can unapologetically be ourselves. Hope\, meanwhile\, speaks to a world set free\, brimming with possibilities. Whether our aspirations are personal or collectively shared\, our inherent ambition to strive forward and evolve ushers in visions of a brighter tomorrow. \nHOME/HOPE explores these intertwined notions\, telling tales through the works of 30 selected artists. The exhibition takes cues from several pressing questions: how might the definition of home be changing? What constitutes hope? And crucially\, how do these separate concepts reinforce one another? \nThe exhibition includes contributions by 30 visual artists\, including: Andreas Kalli\, Armen Ter-Mkrtchyan\, Aukje Dekker with SEXYLAND\, Benji Boyadgian\, Danae Stratou\, Cengiz Bodur\, Droog x KesselsKramer\, George Stamenov\, Gohar Martirosyan\, Guy Ben-Ner\, HovHar\, Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige\, Maria Touloupou\, Melanie Bonajo\, Neo Matloga\, Olgaç Bozalp\, Pet Liger\, Raida Adon\, Rosana Palazyan\, Selma Selman\, Silvina Der-Meguerditchian\, Slavs and Tatars\, Sunny Dolat\, Tal Shochat\, Tania El Khoury\, Turan Aksoy\, Vyacheslav-Yura Useinov\, World Citizen Government and Yves Sambu. \nHome in this exhibition is not merely a physical space\, but an emotional\, cultural\, and sometimes virtual territory. It can be a refuge\, a distant dream\, an origin story\, or even an illusion. It’s often a place we go to find solace. In a globalised world\, our sense of home is fluid\, elusive and rich with potential. The HOME/HOPE exhibition spotlights new modes of (co)existence – and the boundless imagination that unites us\, wherever we may be.  \nSpecial performances in the exhibition space. Aukje Dekker and the SEXYLAND Collective will perform The Sea by Night (14-15 October)\, while Raida Adon will perform during the opening (14 October). Tania El Khoury’s performance – As Far As My Fingertips Take Me takes place on the weekend of 14-15 October.  \nSupport\nThe exhibition is supported by the Larnaca Biennale\, Foundation Brave New Works\, Ministry of Education\, Science Culture and Sport of the Republic of Armenia\, Embassy of Armenia to Cyprus\, Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and Philippossian & Pilossian Foundation\, ART For the World\, Armenian Arts Council in Yerevan and EMST  National Museum of Contemporary Art in Athens (ΕΜΣΤ). \nOfficial Website

SUMMARY:To The Sea With Her Names
DESCRIPTION:Mixed Media Exhibition: A group show by six Asian Artists \n“A name could be signified by a memory and in turn prompt a story\, it can compose identity\, or conjure character. This project’s aim is a group exhibition\, in a common site in Cyprus\, but also a name that has existed for hundreds of years\, thinking about the possibilities of resonating with foreign perspectives.\nArtists from diverse backgrounds will engage with local communities and look beyond borders. The artists not only work in local contexts\, but also trying to reply to the contemporary dilemmas common to the global.\nArtworks begin from the relationships developed in Cyprus\, exploring various dimensions like the role of the sea\, geopolitics\, historical diversity\, local industry\, and traditional crafts. From the artist’s memories and experiences in his own social relationships\, he summons different stories.\nThese stories look at the relationships and tensions hidden by the grand narrative\, such as the emotions erased by history\, the time lost in the wear\, the determination to preserve life in the conflicts and Political wrangling\, and so on. They are ambiguous\, irrelevant to directivity\, but discordant sounds\, ubiquitous\, and real\, mixed.\nThe repeated waves are like the cancellation and return of history\, and we hope to add diverse faces to the ocean of history through the flexibility and imagination characteristic of art.” – Shaoan Huang

They are ambiguous\, irrelevant to directivity\, but discordant sounds\, ubiquitous\, and real\, mixed.\nThe repeated waves are like the cancellation and return of history\, and we hope to add diverse faces to the ocean of history through the flexibility and imagination characteristic of art.” – Shaoan Huang

SUMMARY:Threads On Home
DESCRIPTION:Lecture Series: exploring diverse perspectives on the concept of ‘Home’. \nGuest Speakers invited by Yev Kravt. \n“Threads on Home” is a lecture series that is part of Larnaca Biennale 2023\, centered around the theme ‘Home Away From Home.’ This series takes place every Tuesday at 19:00 in the Living Room at Lazarus Square in Larnaca. Each week\, we delve into different themes over five weeks\, featuring five unique speakers. We kick off with Psychology\, followed by Environment\, Architecture and Design\, Philosophy\, and Space and Technology. Each week\, a different topic and lecturer explore the concept of ‘home’ from different perspectives\, concluding with a Q&A session. Attending is free\, just let us know that you are coming by RSVP? \nWeek 1: Psychology\nWe start with guest speaker\, Dr. Christakis Peristianis\, who boasts an interdisciplinary background merging sociology\, social/cultural history\, and human geography. Over the past seven years\, he has dedicated his research to the concept of ‘Home.’ His PhD work\, “Legacies of Displacement: The memories and meanings of home among a Greek Cypriot family\,” delves into what occurs when home vanishes\, leaving only memories.  \nWeek 2: Environment\nIt’s easy to forget that our primal home once thrived within the natural world\, deeply embedded within the environment. Dr. Maria Hadjimichael explores the ‘home’ theme from an environmental perspective. She is an interdisciplinary scientist in the field of marine and coastal governance\, with extensive academic and research experience. Currently\, she serves as a Senior Associate Scientist at CMMI\, the Cyprus Marine and Maritime Institute. \nWeek 3: Architecture and Design\nDr. William Myer\, who combines the fields of environment and architecture and design\, will speak about BioDesign. His book\, “Biodesign” (2012\, 2018\, 2022 editions) published by the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA)\, identifies the emerging practice of integrating biological processes into design and architecture. Myer also serves as the Founding Director of the new Museum of 21st Century Design (M21D). \nWeek 4: Philosophy and Spirituality\nThis theme will be explored though an online session with contemporary philosopher and NYU professor Dr. Kwame Anthony Appiah. Dr. Appiah delves into his book\, “Lies that Bind Us: Rethinking Identity\,” challenging our assumptions about how identities function. He provides insights into the creation of identities amidst conflicts. The event will still take place at The Living Room with physical attendance. \nWeek 5: Space and Technology\nOur final discussion bridges space and technology through innovation. Dr. Nir Tsuk\, a seasoned practitioner\, academic\, and facilitator with over two decades of international experience in social capital\, entrepreneurship\, and the culture of innovation\, will lead this session. Dr. Tsuk is the founder of NYU’s Institute for Impact and Intrapreneurship\, pioneering the language of innovation. \n  \nREGISTER NOW

SUMMARY:Home/ Hope
DESCRIPTION:International Guest Artists Exhibition. Part of the Parallel Events Program of Larnaca Biennale 2023. \nVisiting hours until November 24th\nMonday Closed\nTuesday – Friday 12:00 – 20:00\nSaturday – Sunday 10:00 – 20:00 \nHOME/HOPE is a capsule exhibition centred on notions of belonging\, identity and our dreams for the future at the Larnaca Biennale in Cyprus. Curated by Yev Kravt\, this exhibition features 30 guest artists\, all exploring the intricate theme of “home” from diverse perspectives. \nJust a single letter differentiates home from hope; but does the notion of home exist without hope\, and can hope truly surface without a place to call home? The subject of belonging opens up a myriad of stories\, told in a multitude of ways. Home is a world we create\, where we can unapologetically be ourselves. Hope\, meanwhile\, speaks to a world set free\, brimming with possibilities. Whether our aspirations are personal or collectively shared\, our inherent ambition to strive forward and evolve ushers in visions of a brighter tomorrow. \nHOME/HOPE explores these intertwined notions\, telling tales through the works of 30 selected artists. The exhibition takes cues from several pressing questions: how might the definition of home be changing? What constitutes hope? And crucially\, how do these separate concepts reinforce one another? \nThe exhibition includes contributions by 30 visual artists\, including: Andreas Kalli\, Armen Ter-Mkrtchyan\, Aukje Dekker with SEXYLAND\, Benji Boyadgian\, Danae Stratou\, Cengiz Bodur\, Droog x KesselsKramer\, George Stamenov\, Gohar Martirosyan\, Guy Ben-Ner\, HovHar\, Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige\, Maria Touloupou\, Melanie Bonajo\, Neo Matloga\, Olgaç Bozalp\, Pet Liger\, Raida Adon\, Rosana Palazyan\, Selma Selman\, Silvina Der-Meguerditchian\, Slavs and Tatars\, Sunny Dolat\, Tal Shochat\, Tania El Khoury\, Turan Aksoy\, Vyacheslav-Yura Useinov\, World Citizen Government and Yves Sambu. \nHome in this exhibition is not merely a physical space\, but an emotional\, cultural\, and sometimes virtual territory. It can be a refuge\, a distant dream\, an origin story\, or even an illusion. It’s often a place we go to find solace. In a globalised world\, our sense of home is fluid\, elusive and rich with potential. The HOME/HOPE exhibition spotlights new modes of (co)existence – and the boundless imagination that unites us\, wherever we may be.  \nSpecial performances in the exhibition space. Aukje Dekker and the SEXYLAND Collective will perform The Sea by Night (14-15 October)\, while Raida Adon will perform during the opening (14 October). Tania El Khoury’s performance – As Far As My Fingertips Take Me takes place on the weekend of 14-15 October.  \nSupport\nThe exhibition is supported by the Larnaca Biennale\, Foundation Brave New Works\, Ministry of Education\, Science Culture and Sport of the Republic of Armenia\, Embassy of Armenia to Cyprus\, Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and Philippossian & Pilossian Foundation\, ART For the World\, Armenian Arts Council in Yerevan and EMST  National Museum of Contemporary Art in Athens (ΕΜΣΤ). \nOfficial Website

SUMMARY:To The Sea With Her Names
DESCRIPTION:Mixed Media Exhibition: A group show by six Asian Artists \n“A name could be signified by a memory and in turn prompt a story\, it can compose identity\, or conjure character.

DESCRIPTION:Larnaka BioDesign Festival invites us to look at the issues of sustainability and ecological responsibility completely outside the box. Combining the latest trends in bio-design\, art and academic research\, the festival fuels thinking and public debate about the materials we use in our homes\, clothes and cities. \nFor the first time\, Cyprus and Larnaka will host a festival of this kind\, entering with confidence into the international biodesign scene. It is time to start envisioning buildings made from mushrooms\, furniture and clothing from algae\, and shoes from wasted animal tissues. \nPRESENTING:\nMYCELIUM PAVILION exhibited at Zouhouri Square \nBuilt entirely out of agricultural waste and mushroom roots\, the pavilion serves as a symbol of innovation and sustainability. Following the structural example of the prehistoric settlement of Choirokoitia\, Dutch architect Stijn Dries and bioscientist Ivana Mik have built the first accessible self-supporting mycelium structure ever made of mycelial filaments that grows mainly under the soil.  \nVisit Zouhouri Square between October 27th and November 5th and discover the unlimited potential of biodesign! \nEXHIBITION “BioSculpt: Co-Creating the Future” \nPresenting the works of internationally recognized designers and artists in the field of Biodesign.
