We formed a group of young people (aged 14 –18) from Marian Mokwa Secondary School n° XIX in Gdansk, Poland and Colegiul National „Nichita Stanescu” secondary school from Ploiesti, Romania to explore the issue of Art in a creative way. Through project activities we wanted to prove ourselves and show a wider audience that Art is a very important part of our lives as it is engaged in global problems and gives commentary to the world surrounding us. We also wanted to draw more attention to the issues connected with the future of our planet - ecology, environmental protection as well as some social issues such as equality, democracy, exclusion, independence of an individual, discrimination (on different levels). Our objective was also to reflect on the problems of an individual: loneliness, alienation, relationships with other people. We wanted to learn about some aspects of art, artists and the process of creation as well as experience the moment of creation in practice and share it with our international group. We wanted to work with professionals (a street photographer, a psychologist, a young model) to gain some experience and knowledge how art can be applied in everyday life and to find inspiration, which could help us and other people overcome everyday problems. By referring to different types of intelligence we intended to prove that we can be artistic in many ways, this making us feel valued and worthwhile. We also wished to discover and experience our own originality in order to become more confident to make our thinking innovative and perform well in the future. Additionally we aimed at getting experienced at designing, organising and carrying our European projects. Staying together in an international team was to motivate us to improve our communication skills. We believed that owing to this project we would become more flexible and open to new possibilities and the artistic spirit of our activities would help to improve collaboration and communication between our Polish Romanian team. In general, we wanted to prove that art is an important key to self-development.
