In September 2023 I was a participant in OISTAT Romania's International Program in Scenography. The program lasted 12 days and took place in Ovidiu, Romania. 21 students from 7 different countries work together in groups on the archaeological site of the old Roman Castrum. The students were led by world-renowned scenographers across the globe: Jean-Guy Lecat, Nic Ularu, Viorica Petrovici, and more. Students worked in teams taking over different sections of the the site and turning them into performance pieces, installations, and living art under the theme "Before/After". The process consisted of workshops and artist talks that led to fostering final pieces of work at the gala showcasing the designs. People ranged from scenographers to directors, to performers. Everyone expanded themselves beyond their own practice.
