Mini-lab ep 2: The beautiful Ones Are Not Yet Born

Mål og innhald

The Mini Lab project brings together two Phd fellows whose projects investigate the writings of two separate thinkers respectively, Paulo Freire in the case of Romeo Gongora¿s PhD project Awaken Dreams and Frantz Fanon in Anawana Haloba¿ Subtle Encounter. Both thinkers' work interrogates the politics of the process of decolonisation and the relationship between the colonised and coloniser while investigating the meaning of freedom.

As fellows, we are interested to interrogate various avenues (processes) of art production against research with the emphasis on Visual Culture and critical thinking. We invite students at both at BA level and MA level to dialogue in the process of creating, using the southsouth references against the western background.

The laboratory is intended for students to acquire tools of critical thinking towards art-production and foster a new perspective with visual culture.
