Exhibition
The Caravane Majlis exhibition is a celebration of solidarity in the 21 century. Farmers, shepherds, foresters, weavers, tailors, cabinetmakers, architects, engineers and artists; members of government institutions, corporate leaders, musicians and poets, scientists, cultural figures and children engage in answering the same question:
How will we live together?
The Majlis exhibition is an investigation into what human beings can do together virtuously, in balance and on Earth today. It is a look into how we can produce common space ethically, and how that space can be filled with meaningful social activity.
Resources, production processes, legacy and purpose become an exploration of tangible and intangible heritage in a global community.
