Claws and connections – all the world’s senses

Claws and connections is a parade of artistic research where parts of the display changes over time. The exhibition consist of propositions that inhabit the space in a more permanent manner and works and gestures that take the centre stage for a shorter time during the event programme. Installations, sounds, paintings, videos, performances, interventions, exercises, excerpts, workshops, sculptures, and scores, will have chance to show their claws and suggest new ways to connect.

Claws and connections is a forum of artistic research that invites visitors to experience artistic research on its home field. Here experimental arrangements, research gestures, processes, and artworks perform their epistemic twists and turns on their own terms in a pluralistic and generous ensemble.

Claws and connections is a venue for new encounters, collegial dialogues and peer-to-peer learning. Welcome to wonder, reflect, and discuss – in medias res!
