Speaker: Reinaart Vanhoe
Belgian artist-researcher Reinaart Vanhoe lives and works in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, and is currently a resident artist at Bamboo Curtain Studio, Taipei.

In the coming years, I would like to formulate a biotope of what I want to name a ‘caring/imaginative’ (art) practice’. How to understand art for a citizen-scene opposed to art for an art-scene, or culture-scene of a certain educational class. This formulation will, probably, be based on a mix of certain practices in South East Asia. Important for such a practice is how to speak together, how to understand its ecology and how to understand different perspectives of how people enter interactions.

There is a need for formulations how these art-practices look like to give confidence and comfort to artists searching for new articulations. It serves to inspire a younger generation growing up with something named ‘global art’. What comes along with collaborations, how to understand the effort, where to locate critique, what is materialisation, where is the audience, who is the audience.
