At the moment there are four photographers who want to particapate!
I'm interested in social aspects of life in collective or group, my friends are into:
Intimacy & private side of squatting
Relations between people and spaces they occupy
Portraiture
That's only four people for now, but we need more!!!
This blog is about developing multidisciplinary project that can bring together artist, writers, academics & other who want to contribute. It's aim is to create a platform of expression for those who disagrees with existing image of squatting in media circulation, and by creative means want to influence change of it. In light of possible change in law by current government, positive public action is very much what's needed.

the mission is...
Squatting, like all social issues, exists in public perception in many conflicting representations. The image has changed many times over the past couple of decades. Current situation is way out of balance, mainstream media stories portray it often like a plague for a society. Adding to that, rapidly spreading rumours about bringing Criminal Act by government, does not help our situation. I want therefore to bring together as many creative people, that live in squats or symphatize with us, to create platform that can influence public opinion.
Tactic:
To achieve that, I want to gather artists, writers, academics and others, who want to produce work that could be exhibited, displayed, published, in pop-up galleries - created in squatted buildings, with flash mob organized audience & open to general public as well, until possible. With guerrilla tactic, we can get our voice being heard.
Message:
I want to show squatting, as something positive, different to "normal" - but definetely positive. I want to show a celebration of life & all its aspects that cross with squatting.
I hope we can get this message heard.
