DIRTY PINK WATERS OF COLLECTIVITY

Dirty Pink Waters of Collectivity (DPW) is an interdisciplinary event series on intersectional art pedagogies, curated and hosted by KKP. DPW explores different formats, from lectures, screenings and workshops to life-drawing sessions. The series addresses questions of collectivity in the arts and education, which empower intersectional and post-migrant positions. Art education becomes world-making, when it makes space for relationality, unlearning, and the condition of unknowing. Art education enables space for conflicting, meshing and fluid identities, and for the contamination of the dominant language(s).
