counters, reflections, and co-creation: exploring inspiration, motivation and artistic creation of artists engaged with themes of war, conflict, displacement and social (in)justice.
This is part of an Open Space of the INSPIRE project examining artistic inspiration, creative practice and imagination in the context of war, conflict, exile and oppression carried out by Kasia Grabska at the Peace Research Institute in Oslo. With visual artists Anna Konik and Marisa Cornejo, Kasia co-organizes an open space in Geneva at Utopiana and Espace Kugler (17-21 September 2022) with artists who have lived experiences of exile, displacement, violent conflict or political persecution and whose creative practice relates to these themes. Through their personal experiences and methodologies invited artists will create a hybrid, multi-layered perspective on the creative space of exile and political oppression.
Join us to meet and learn more about these fascinating artists, their personal and creative trajectories during an apéro at Espace Kugler on Monday, the 19th of September, 2022.
