Public Art Program Day Two

Our workshop took place at the beautiful Eco Resort Kara Bulak, 30 km away from Bishkek. The following three days and two nights we spent here. The nomadic yurt served us a conference room, where we presented our work, kept discussions, brain storm sessions, proposal presentations. We also had a plov party in the yurt. Our first day in yurt started with the welcoming note of Karen Davidov and followed by our artists Alexey Lysogorov, Meder Akhmetov, Rafael Vargas, Suleiman Sharifi, and Saule Suleimenova.
