Creative workshops "Playroomgirl" is an international project initiated by Serbian NGO Kulturis in cooperation with the Spanish organization Neuronit, aiming to develop creativity and encourage artistic expression through photography, as well as to develop a critical attitude towards the established stereotypes regarding the role of women in contemporary society. This project, supported by the Serbian Ministry of Culture is focused on girls of age group 14-16 coming from different social and family backgrounds. Project "Playroomgirl" forms part of a broader international program that was organized in Spain and Mexico, with the main goal to improve living conditions of women and girls, especially from socially marginalized groups through art and new technologies.

The backbone of Serbian project are four creative workshops. The starting point in analyzing the role of women in modern society will be photos of some of the greatest female photographers and artists (Marina Abramovic, Cindy Sherman, Dorothea Lange, Cari Mae Weems, Diane Arbus, Mary Ruth Anderson, etc). These should illustrate the constancy of women's position in all ages despite of the progress of modern era. Based on this analysis, participants will re-interpret the given photo-scene and create their own photos, alternating in the role of photographers and models. Afterwards, they will have the cance to acquire basic skills of digital image manipulation programs.
The workshops are interactive and content will be presented with practical examples, experiments, games and didactic "role - play" activities with emphasis on group work. Project sustainability is ensured by a virtual exhibition that will include all created artworks, giving audience a chance to compare different photos inspired by the very same original.
