Masterclass Artistic Research 2022: Working With Waste is conceived as a mentor-led research group which explores relationships between waste, creativity and transformation. It is a space for artist filmmakers to develop research based moving image projects that activate waste materials and/ or explore the meanings and potentials of waste in various sociocultural settings.
Beyond conventional notions of trash, climate conscious tropes like sustainability and processes that extend the life of material resources the working group will also explore the potential of discarded materials in the context of research. The working group revolves around questions such as - what kinds of creativity are involved in working with waste? How do we archive, improvise, share, and reactivate waste materials? What are the historical legacies of working with waste in the context of different disciplines and how do attitudes to waste shape infrastructures and norms?
Please join us for the public programme on Monday, Sept 19 via Zoom.
