a new kind of vaziri
(2024)
Puyain Sanati
In this exposition I’m showing you my journey for these past two years of investigating my artistic practice through the meeting of identity and aesthetics.
Due to my Iranian background, I have felt a need and curiosity to bring together my Iranian and European identities. This project is a dialogue between myself and music, encompassing sounds, arrangements, physical presence, materiality, technology, context, and politics.
By politics I mean; history, cultural appropriation, diversity, colonisation, beliefs, and the current needs of the western culture.
A project involving confrontations with habits, default parameters, and elements within digital audio workspaces, thereby incorporating scales.
This Is a Human Being
(2024)
Hilde Kramer
"How can illustration approach the non-representable?"
The question is linked to ways of commemorating the children who died during the Holocaust and what kind of representations could be appropriate. As part of a workshop drawing process, information is unfolded about children whose existence was previously documented only by the ghetto archives and the deportation lists made by the Nazi-German administration of Litzmannstadt ghetto.
The methodology has been developed though workshops. In the final step of part I, the project investigates how the material may be developed to a book/archive.

Co-poiesis: redefining our relationship with the world through filmmaking
(2024)
Yasmin Henra van Dorp
The research question that motivates this study is: what insights can be drawn from collaborative filmmaking that can illuminate new pathways for interacting with the world around us?
Against the backdrop of contemporary societal and environmental divisions, this artistic research explores ways for redefining relationships, both human and nonhuman, through the lens of the philosophical framework of co-poiesis. Using a practice-led research methodology based on the collaborative process of the short documentary "The Spectacle" this study explores how collaborative practice and sensory engagement can serve as a reflective tool, illuminating our relational dynamics and perceptual interactions with each other and our environment.
ARCHAEOLOGIES OF DESTRUCTION
(2024)
Santa
On the 13th of April 2024 an archaeological action in the 2º Torrão neighborhood was carried out, in collaboration with the Almada Archaeology Centre. The objective was not an excavation, it was not prospecting, but an activity that would make the residents, through the participation of the children who live there, aware of their recent past, their identity and the importance of what is happening in their neighborhood, for themselves and others. 2º Torrão is a self-built neighborhood located a few km from the center of Trafaria where approximately 2000 people live.
