We invite organisations / art operators / curators to join in the realization of this project: fundraising, organising, producing etc.

The subject and the starting point is the Romanian old pastoral ballad Miorita, (…) that describes death as a joyful marriage between human and cosmos, a feast at which all nature participates. For the ballad and a translation, please refer to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miorita, http://spiritromanesc.go.ro/Miorita%20-eng.html. 

Four poets and a visual artist from various cultural backgrounds will meet at morsiena to re-write Miorita in their own, contemporary language & context, during a collaborative residency. They will translate their work into English (or have someone doing it for them). We will provide translations from English into Romanian and Hungarian. Perhaps it would be interesting to write a Miorita together, as a collaborative process >> it will be decided together by the artists during the project. We will create an art installation in which we might integrate music produced during TransyMusic, as a means to connect various Morisena projects and participating artists. A booklet will be produced and published with all the texts in their original languages and with English, Romanian and Hungarian translations.
