Project
Nantes, France 2013
The work „28.06.2013, MONUMENTS“ is a collaborative artistic research into the creation of a moment. It celebrates public urban spaces as the spaces for the unplanned occasional encounter with the other, the spaces where the urban culture of tolerance is refined. The open acessibility of the public spaces also makes them potential political spaces, which the work celebrates in a second layer.
Den Haag, Netherlands 2012
At the TODAYSART festival in the Hague we build a “Vortex” – a space like a whirlwind from locally available materials.
Reggio Emilia, Italy 2012
We understand the Loris Malaguzzi Center as a strip of collective experience. Following that logic with the Reggio school enlargement, we propose scenarios of different evolutionary speeds which rely on our belief in the quality of participative collective exchange of all involved stakeholders, developing within the bends of this process of education and experiment.
Rotterdam, Netherlands 2012
For the 2012 De Wereld van Witte de With Festival entitled “The Street - Live Issue!” the Witte de With Straat is blocked for traffic for the first time. The space usually occupied by parked and moving cars is given to the people for alternative use and program connected to the festivals topic. For the duration of the festival raumlabor surrogates the missing objects by its Limousine Service. It consists of a set of rebuilt cars that turn the automobiles purposes of cocooning/enclosure and individual mobility into interactive configurable mobile objects that interweave with the imagination of an alternative use of urban space that challenges the idea of looking institution's programs and particularly with “The Street – Live Issue”. The forms and functions of each limousine are derived from the cult built around automobiles and the promises made by the huge advertisement apparatus as well as city and environment making connected to the issue that in practice most of the time contradicts it purpose.
