OpenField: A gathering
Constant is invited to participate, and partly host, the program OpenField as a long time research collaborator of a.pass.
"OpenField is a five-day gathering dedicated to the possible futures and autonomies of artistic research.
Through these questions, a.pass invited three artistic collectives,One Field Fallow (BE), Topote de Acahual (MX), and Arquitectura Expandida (CO), to each identify an urgent topic at the end of their research residency. Their responses have become the titles of the first three days of the gathering: Scripts and Protocols for Collective Spaces, Foreshadowing Amid Turbulent Futures, Manifest Everyday Urban Utopias. Three topics to be explored collectively by a multiform constellation of research-based practices.
The fourth day starts off on the right foot: Breakfast for Insatiable Researchers invites you to meet art workers in Brussels who have long supported artistic research, mostly without structural funding. Directly in the spaces where they usually work. Food for thought, for practices, and more! In the afternoon, the gathering documentation group will share traces from previous OpenField moments during a Memory-Making Session, and create space for contributions from everyone.
The fifth day is dedicated to a working session, Collabora(c)tion: Futuring Artistic Research, for organisations, educational institutions, and collectives who want to explore how to join forces and continue (or begin) creating shared spaces, time, and energy for artistic research."
