Makunaima – the clay village project in Berlin’s Britzer
Garden - short description:
‘Makunaima’ started about 14
years ago as a ‘leisure-activity’ for the 6 week German
summer holidays . It has become an organism, that can call itself
a ‘clay village’. . Like the history of human architecture,
it began with caves of mud, like the “primitive” but
already elaborate African clay hut. Medieval, Mayan, and Indian
styles also provided inspiration, as did big minds like Antonio
Gaudi. What made the buildings singular was the visible touch
of hand, and the experience of earthen buildings of a style, not
known in the usual urban world.
The work in Berlin has become more diverse, involving adults in
more expert activities, and offering children a range of artificial
activities. The younger ones prefer to play and do tiny projects
in the clay village ; older kids want to be part of the serious
building stuff. Makunaima’ is still a group project, with
a high level of interaction between adults and children.
What we appreciate most is the quality of live that you gain working
in the nature. Learning from each other and giving our next generations
the chance to have positive work experiences, as well as the acting
out of creative and physical activities is a basic value, an attitude
that seems sometimes forgotten in the modern world..
Here in our society model built of clay, work can be a joyful
game, a positive energy is located at the place and, in my opinion,
we benefit from a sparkling beam of the Lords eye.
You can meet us there and share our work!
