[HYPERSITUATIONS]: Growing threads

An open collective process on canvas using textile, rattan and local street art as resources. The group of students wants to reflect on the colonial history of textile, dye/paint and art by connecting different parts of the world through choice of material, participation and artistic dialogue. The students wish to contribute to generate empowering structures and nurture progressive ideas in the post-colonialist western-dictated art world.

HYPER SITUATIONS are a set of practices on the pictorial, the choreographic, the sensory or the sculptural that emerge in the process of spontaneous gatherings and collaborations. The series of actions is initiated by a group that has come together under the guest professorship of Reza Afisina and Iswanto Hartono in the last three months at the Kunsthochschule Kassel: Rosi Altmann, Christina Bickel, Nacho Martín Encinas, Tanja von Gilda, Maximilian Graf, Muyang Lyu, Eva-Maria Matt, Marlon Meng, Marlon Middeke, Tim Rudolph, Regula Sophia Rickert, Otto W. Werren, Marie Werthschulte
