Thuli: Yes, it's nice, let's do it, you know, but what's gonna be the outcome? Are we going to continue?

bits and pieces
work in progress ...
In my visual research I have talked to twelve international artists, activists and cultural workers. Their voices tell stories about cross border activities, migration, mobility, exclusion and everyday life in Europe. The ongoing video work tackles questions around exclusive mechanisms of borders in an artistic way.

in collaboration

during my fellowship
while working as a fellow of kültüř gemma! with the Austrian UNESCO Commission I initiated a project about the big topic “artistic freedom“.
I am looking at artistic freedom through the lens of “international artist mobility/ barriers & exclusion“.
