- Systemic changes
Our idea is an innovative proposal to create an inspirational urbanscape, in the Municipality of Neapoli – Sykies (Greece). Our pilot model strengthens and empowers the vitality of city's cultural environment, both in terms of diversity and quality of activities (spontaneous or organized) and people involved in the production of art and knowledge. It inspires and connects local cultural activities, events, institutions and artistic networks while, at the same time, provokes an open multicultural dialogue. Our project focuses on Placemaking innovations, including street art. In a significant way, our project implies transformation of social values, spatial perceptions and emotional connection to the innovative creations by introducing functional changes, through spatial rearrangement.
