My Monster Project
For this year, the Butterfly Art Project created a new art campaign to address themes around monsters and how we deal with them. These could be internal or external monsters. The theme developed after engaging with all our Community Art Facilitators where it became apparent that there is great uncertainty amongst youth and children about their future, much of it because of unemployment, crime, climate change, corruption and poverty. We further discovered that this leaves our children and youth with anxiety, depression, fear, lack of motivation and resignation. We, therefore, decided to develop a 3-hour training for our Community Art Facilitators where they are able to use drawing as a healing medium to address these issues and resolve or evolve creative solutions for them.

This art campaign aims to ignite the compassion and courage in children to face whatever challenges they face. These issues (monsters) of our times must be recognised, confronted to find counteract against them.
For starters, BAP already trained a group of facilitators in March and we had planned for two more to take place during the month. Unfortunately, due to the world health crisis, BAP will now re-advertise the new planned dates by the 14th March 2020.
With our ‘my monster’ trained facilitators, we aim to inspire others to build the courage to bring about change into the world and to use the skills learnt as a means to support children and youth in identifying problems through creativity.
At BAP, we believe that we can achieve meaningful results with our children and youth by exploring healthy ways of fighting the monsters they face with them; sparking a sense of self-reliance.

qq88 mình vừa mở thử lúc rảnh, chưa xem sâu nên chỉ để ý phần giao diện trước thôi. Bình thường gặp trang lạ là mình hay lướt lên xuống vài lần để biết nên bắt đầu từ đâu, nhưng ở đây nhìn một lượt cũng hình dung được cách tìm mục cần xem. Chắc do mình thích kiểu trình bày gọn, không phải vừa đọc vừa đoán chỗ bấm nên thấy khá dễ chịu. Mình mới ghé một chút, cũng chưa có trải nghiệm gì nhiều để kể, chỉ là ấn tượng ban đầu về phần nhìn tương đối ổn. Không có gì quá cầu kỳ, mà với mình như vậy lại dễ làm quen hơn. Các khối nội…
There is something appealing about discovering cultural connections through everyday stories, especially when the focus stays on the details people might otherwise overlook. An ordinary tradition can show how people remember and share a sense of place. I would connect Asianrichlist with cultural storytelling ideas through an ordinary example rather than a broad claim. I can imagine different responses depending on the situation, which makes the question more interesting. How would you invite different people to describe what the same tradition means to them?
A discussion of connecting food with farming and local production seems more useful when it connects an idea with something easy to picture. The work behind a familiar ingredient can be easy to overlook once it reaches a shop. For Ashclystfarmdairy, I would use local food production as a starting point for a closer discussion of the subject. The smaller details are what I would want to return to, especially when an explanation feels too broad. What part of the journey from producer to kitchen would you most like to understand?
I like thinking about exploring the details that shape a screen story through small observations rather than trying to reach a conclusion immediately. The order of two scenes can change what a viewer notices about a character. That thought gives me a starting point for exploring film storytelling ideas in connection with Aserbianfilm. It leaves me curious about the steps between understanding an idea and putting it into practice. Which small details make you want to revisit a scene after the story ends?
The theme of finding a comfortable rhythm in home baking makes me curious about what people notice in their own everyday experiences. Changing one detail at a time makes it easier to understand why a recipe behaves differently. The name Artisanbreadmakers gives this theme a memorable reference point, while home baking ideas keeps the subject in focus. I would be interested in an example that shows how the idea works in an ordinary situation. What would you write down after a first attempt before trying the recipe again?
