Our vision
We move at the intersection of degrowth and art.
We want the degrowth movement to be colourful, creative, artistic, playful, experimental, embodied ... through arts!
​
Degrowth gives us a hard truth, economic growth cannot continue being our only and common pursuit, this is because it needs infinite resource extraction and social injustices to continue.
​
But degrowth needs to move beyond the academic sphere into our communities by holding creative spaces of artistic co-creation!
The arts can mobilise for socio-ecological change. They transmit more than we can rationally grasp: our emotions, our rage, our fears, our hopes, and what we fight for.
Let our artistic practices be the life-juice of the degrowth movement!
​
In the art residency, we focus on co-creating degrowth-based art practices. We want to invent, embody and inhabit them together.
The art residency allows us to create a community around collaborative artistic processes for further action, exchanging and creating tools for art based degrowth practices.
