For one year already, the artistic languages of Michela Dal Brollo and In\u00e9s Ballesteros converge.\u00a0Michela Dal Brollo and In\u00e9s Ballesteros create and demonstrate portable equipment as a set of transportable, practical and conceptual devices, which they name “Living Equipment”. Through the Living Equipment, they research how to generate temporary spaces that favour more heterogeneous and diverse forms of urbanism, in contrast to a tendency towards privatization and control in public space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The tools they are developing aim to be potential catalysts of social situations that temporarily transgress or soften spatial and social boundaries.\u00a0Within this research project, they want to develop a movable structure to be installed in liminal spaces of Antwerp. The design of the structure will be based on research on vernacular shelters. The new structure will temporarily work as a cultural shelter for meetings, observatory of spatial dynamics and as an \u201cin situ studio\u201d. In order to adapt and communicate with different spaces of Antwerp, the structure will be transportable and foldable, taking multiple forms. The activation of the structure will happen with neighbours, artists and students.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":6608,"template":"","class_list":["post-6607","residencies","type-residencies","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
