Igor Bošnjak made a big painting of Europe. In fact it is European map, but very strange and awkward. It is relief map, size about 3,7 x 5 meters, where Europe is represent as an island completely isolated. Later, above that map he shoot a movie. It is film about how Europe nowadays becoming something else… This video shows Europe as a self-sufficient form of excistence, as an Eutopia island which will soon become self-containment region in psychological way. This video is his projection of idea of Europe.

Children’s workshop was held in the Museum of Contemporary Art Vojvodina in September 2017. on the exhibition EUTOPIA PROJECT- Igor Bošnjak.

15 children of the age between 8 and 10 had a tour through the exhibition by the educatiors who work in the museum. After the discussion about the exhibition and about  geographic terms,  political boundaries and migration. They had the task to do the drawings about the migration in relation to the geographical characteristics of the land (sea, mountains, islands …). Choosing the different varieties of materials (sand, paint, paper), we had examples of how children see migration and the ways of migrating in different geographical conditions.
