On Circulation (aka Beyond Rubbish)

The three-week hands-on workshop takes the materiality of photographic art production under scrutiny. The course aims to inspire experimental ways of making, to emphasize process and production as a tool and to grow understanding about the actuality of an art object.

We will dig into our own archives, work with materials, plans and ideas left aside or disregarded for one reason or another. We will circulate ideas and components, taking this as our method and practice.

Questions to be discussed and practiced during the course are: How to take leftover in use and how to use circulation and recycling as theme, source, material, and method. And, is sustainable art production possible?

This workshop seeks to call forth discussions about ecological issues of materiality and the prospects for economical art production, and to consider topics such as definitions of value.

The course comprises earlier Mixed Media workshop in its agenda. In the Printlab of Väre, together with the second teacher of the course Markus Ahonen, we can experiment with inkjet printing on any material and technique: painting or printmaking, paper, fabric, wood, metal or even a slice of toast.
