Dancing with Trouble Programme 2022

23 Oct – Beyond Bodies

The position of humans is changing drastically. In the midst of ecological mayhem, largely caused by human interference, not our voices, but the voices of animals, nature, digital entities and other others may guide the way forward. How can artists and designers help us to connect with these entities? Which new narratives can emerge from this?

24/25 Oct – Longing to Belong

In today’s reality, there is an increased feeling of polarization and of being detached. Society still struggles to embrace those with globalized, fluid and multi-layered identities. Indigenous knowledge, tradition and heritage are still considered as something melancholic. How can we challenge existing binaries, so all can belong? How can artists and designers guide this process?

At the same time, our daily lives shift to digital or hybrid spaces. What could our future look like and which skills do we need to navigate? How can artists and designers help to navigate our future land(scapes)?

practical information
Title: Stimuleringsfonds presents Talent
Date: 22 to 30 October 2022
Time: daily 11am – 6pm, Dancing with Trouble daily from 1pm
Location: MU Hybrid Art House, Torenallee 40-06 (Strijp-S), Eindhoven

Every year, emerging design talents active in the fields of design, architecture and digital culture are given the opportunity to develop themselves optimally in artistic and professional terms, thanks to a grant from the Creative Industries Fund NL. The 2022 crop of talents has now been visualized in one-minute film portraits.

How can you design based on touch and feeling? What is the best diet for our soil? And how will we dress in the future if our garments are living beings?

The 2022 crop of talents is diverse and motivated by a sense of urgency. All of them want to play an active role in necessary social change. What fresh approach is this new cohort taking? Moving along on the waves of current events, they face the future with a surprisingly hopeful attitude, with courage and with freedom.

Dancing with Trouble
Complementing the film portraits, the emerging designers and makers also present themselves to the public in person through the content programme Dancing with Trouble. Five connecting themes are key to the various presentations and performances. The Beyond Bodies theme is about ceasing to focus on humans and learning to listen to nature and other entities. Longing to Belong addresses the sense of detachment that many people struggle with in this hyper-individualistic age. What is the meaning of ‘feeling at home’ and how can designers contribute to a sense of belonging? Sensing Forward relates to the increasing recognition for feelings and experiences as a valuable and valid source of knowledge. Relating to Land(scapes) places the focus on our future landscape, and the new skills and behaviours we need to develop to live and navigate with each other. And finally Power to the Personal focuses on practices in which personal stories play an important role.

Dancing with Trouble is compiled by agog and programme maker urban-environment Eva van Breugel, programme maker and strategic consultant on the intersection of fashion, design, art and society Esther Muñoz Grootveld and programme maker, writer and researcher on contemporary art (including media art), visual and digital culture Manique Hendricks.
