Fluxum Foundation and Flux Laboratory support the InZone project

InZone
A project from the University of Geneva in collaboration with the Fluxum Foundation and Flux Laboratory.

« Art of all sorts, suggested Sartre, must be aimed not merely toward « pure contemplative enjoyment », but seen as « the instrument of possible action » Philip Taylor

The Fluxum Foundation and Flux Laboratory are proud to support the UNIGE-InZone project : a tertiary education space created in the Kakuma refugee camp, in Kenya, next to South-Sudan border.

The Fluxum Foundation and Flux Laboratory participate in the development of this project, sending choreographer Cisco Aznar to the Kakuma camp this October, where he will to give a series of workshops including dance, drama , music, film, and writing.

The artistic expression in all its forms plays an important role in conflict resolution, in the return to some normalcy despite the fragility of the camp contex, in the field of humanitarian communication and cultural transmission.
Thus refugees enrolled in this tertiary education programme find a space for exchange in which each culture, each language and each personal experience has its own mode of expression.
Cisco Aznar (born 1972) is a choreographer graduated from the School of Dramatic Art in Barcelona.
He participated in the creation of pieces with the Béjart Ballet and created, among others, for the Lausanne Opera, Opera of Dijon, the Grand Theatre de Geneva and the Stockholm Opera. He directed the Compagnie Buissionière  in Lausanne. 
Cisco Aznar has already collaborated with the Fluxum Foundation and Flux Laboratory with the creation Tell me Swiss, presented at the Swiss Pavilion of the Shanghai World Expo in 2010, and then in 2014 with the Flux School, a pilot project featuring young people in social breakdowns.
