The Sender, the Message, the Vehicle and the Receiver
As a journalist I'm considered to be a communication expert. However, we're all skilled in having dialogues with one another, whether we use words, images or physical language. Moreover, we're also very much aware of the errors in our communication. We can all point out the moments when we were misunderstood, ignored or even lied to. During IFAA 2012, I was invited to engage with the residency artists on the theme: Communication, Exchange, Dialogue and Art with the purpose of reflecting on today’s society. Lead moreWe at the IFAA Art Platform wish you a very peaceful, healthy and creative 2013. A special thanks goes to the IFAA family whose support made it possible to do the impossible. Looking forward to 2013.
