I had the opportunity to be part of the residency organizing team and was closely involved in the mentoring phase supported by Berit Fischer. During the course which took place between 8-10 July, the 10 selected participants explored the in-depth understanding of
emotions through own artistic practices. In the course "Towards a Post-Representational
Practice" found out what the Radical Empathy Lab created by Berit is, discovered what can be behind the artistic discourse and learned how to develop their own curatorial style, putting in visual arts dialogue with international cultural landmarks.
