About The Den Project
The Den Project initiates the construction of spaces of creativity
inviting people to participate and contribute to the design and making
of temporary environments, as a means of communicating that does not
depend on one common spoken language. It celebrates the potential of
temporary structures, a d.i.y aesthetic, assemblage and disassemblage,
and the reusing of materials. As such the constructions become a focus
of discussion that draws on such experiences as individual childhood
memories, home-made construction methods, the necessity of shelter
physically and psychologically, creativity as a means of exchange and
communication that somewhere between all these connects what we can do
universally.
