With theatrical elements such as tableaux vivant, dynamics pictures and the spoken word we create performances exploring big topics. Are you up for an adventure?
Manja Eland is a visual artist, graphic recorder, designer of art education and trainer. She specializes in mindset and the potential and needs of gifted children. Storytelling and (enhancing) the power of imagination are driving forces in her work. Sparking creativity and curiosity in participants, it is a great way to kickstart a creative process. Manja tries to lead by example, embracing both the playfulness, vulnerability and grit involved in a creative endeavor, and encourages teachers to do the same, recognizing that actions speak louder than words when it comes to imparting knowledge. She believes the core of facilitating a creative process is igniting curiosity, then taking a step back to allow the child to make their own journey. Manja represents the Dutch partner Stichting Kopa where she is Head of Education.
Linda Rosink is a versatile designer, creating in a wide range of creative disciplines, like art education, concepts, graphic design and jewelry. In art education and training, she focuses on facilitating individuals’ exploration of their creativity and fostering a sense of playfulness. In experiencing your own creativity, Linda believes, you can find the power to give direction to your own life. If you can imagine it, you can make it. She specializes in areas such as Deep Democracy, inclusion and co-creation, connecting people, ideas and projects. Guided by the belief that each person brings a unique perspective and is an expert of their own experience, she invites people to share their opinions and ideas when working together in innovative projects. Linda represents the Dutch partner Stichting Kopa where she is Director
