GROUND is an exchange project between MoKS, MAA Art school of Helsinki and the Art Academy of Poznan in Poland funded by Grundtvig life long learning programme. GROUND as a project focuses on Strategies of Culture, Collaborative Methods and Site-Specific practices. During a 2 year period, groups from each of the partners will make 2 visits to each other partner. The local host develops a theme and a program for each meeting. In the case of this first meeting the theme was "environment" and the students were given an open canvas as how to interpret that.

Two options were given as starting points:

• choose and "environment. make and analysis of it. work with the phenomenon of that environment


• create an "environment"

Over the week the students formed into small collaborative groups or worked as individuals and developed site-specific installations, performances or multi-media works. From the Estonian side we had: Mari, Patrick, Kersti, Kerstin and Indrek.
