Rooted Resurgence - Reimagining Collections
Folgende Erkenntnisse, Assotiationen und Learnings hatte ich wärend dem Vanessa Opoku ihre Arbeiten vorgestellt und aus ihrem Leben und Arbeiten erzählt hat.
"Embrace experimentation in all forms – it's the pathway to unexpected discoveries."
"Remember the power of physical presence.
– Sometimes, being there is everything."
"Create with AI as an amplifyer, but ponder deeply about identity and creativity.
– Where do I end and where does the AI begin?"
"Question authorship in the age of AI. - What does it mean to create?
"Seek singular focus amidst chaos. One clear thought can be a guiding star.
"Look at nature and history together. Context is essential and can not be compromised on.
"Reflect on the legacies we cherish. What do they say about us and our history?"
Botanical garden as a form of opression.
"Plastic Garden" is the project that bloomed in the Workshop and has its roots in the collective critique we developed and talked about within the worksop "Rooted Resurgence".
