Arvid Jansen

Workshop host, my true self

In my life I’ve always been into arts& crafts. Creating something with my own hands has always been something powerful to me. 

Two years ago I studied in Sweden, at the Youth Initiative Program (YIP), a study in social entrepreneurship. 

In YIP, I met a deeper truth in myself and the world. This was because we  created a space together where everybody could share their own story.  

After YIP, I went traveling and realized that I want to give something back to  the world and this meant organizing the Connect Conference of 2017.  Nowadays I’m studying Art and design in education in the Netherlands at ArtEZ. Working and creating with the world and his human beings in a playful way has always been important to me.

That’s me in a nutshell!

I play, therefore I am

During this workshop we will look at our own definition of being playful. Beside this we’re gonna have a look at different artists that play and therefore get out of the ordinary situations in life. The whole week long we will be creating art in many different ways. We’re gonna work towards an art installation that makes us and others more playful. In the end this will be placed in a public space in Ljubljana.
