Shelter for collective dreaming / Adăpost pentru vremuri incerte
August – November 2025
Spring Entrance Community in Siliștea Snagovului:
The Experimental Station for Research on Art and Life
ASK (Amaranth Seed Kollective)
The Three Ashes
In August, tranzit.ro/Bucharest is launching a new project which coincides with the official inauguration of two distinct entities on the land parcels around the Experimental Station: ASK (Amaranth Seed Kollective), a group formed by sound artist Mihai Mitran, artists Dan Vezentan, Mihaela Moldovan, Eduard Constantin, cultural manager and performer Maria Mora, curators Raluca Voinea, Adelina Luft, and architects George Marinescu and Daria Oancea; and the Three Ashes Association established by curator Charles Esche.
Shelter for collective dreaming proposes the co-production of a modular and mobile shelter on the land parcels of the ASK members through collective conceptualization, participation, and activation. The shelter will be enabled throughout autumn as a space for dreaming and imagining, together with local and international guests invited to contribute, in dialogue and exchange, at formulating a timely, contextually relevant direction for the artistic community at Siliștea Snagovului. The events held on site and in the surroundings, will approach the wide spectrum of dreams, through walks, workshops, presentations, performances and discussions, understood as gestures of resistance and hope-projecting in the face of ongoing multiple crises – political, cultural, and ecological.
