Collaborations

At the master class, Arina Shabanova will share a technique for creating "objects of power": small sculptures made of wood and bells that can uplift your mood and replenish your energy, serving as a reminder of the care and energy poured into their creation.
The materials are carefully chosen: the wooden element connects the object to nature, while the bells evoke the carefree world of childhood. The master class includes meditation, a journey into a resourceful state, and the creation of your own object of power using materials selected by Arina.

To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee,
One clover, and a bee,
And revery.
The revery alone will do,
If bees are few.

“The countdown she produced imagines a peaceful, natural setting with thoughtful character interactions that reads as a series of playful vignettes.” Arina’s contribution is certainly traditional and would possibly be used by creators building a community centred around self-help, development or even those around storytelling, art or nature.”

The Trembling Giant, also known as Pando forest, has one massive underground root system. It's among the oldest known living organisms. It's been able to survive all sorts of viruses,
harsh weather, etc, because it intuitively knows how to adapt.

Music: Jimmy Stofer
Direction and animation: Arina Shabanova

“The Trembling Giant has a meditative quality to it, it’s captivating and hard to stop watching.“

En-Medio is a free publication series produced with funding from the Fondo Nacional para la Cultura y las Artes (FONCA). The project highlights the delicate status of Modernist architectural heritage in Mexico City with the evolving stories of six mid-century masterworks.

Individual issues are dedicated to the Casa Ortega, Súper Servicio Lomas, Museo Experimental El Eco, Casa Cueva, Restaurante Los Manantiales, and Torre Insignia. Through conversations with those who have lived and worked in the projects of interest, historians who have studied them, activists who have fought for their preservation,
and iconoclasts who have wished them dismantled, En-Medio drops into architectural narratives of the city, long underway, to ask what possible futures lie ahead.
