There is a new KABK Research Group!
From many compelling proposals submitted to an open call for the KABK Research Group 2021, the following tutor-researchers have been selected: from Fine Art, Vibeke Mascini; from Master Artistic Research, Jasper Coppes; from Graphic Design, Katrin Korfmann, Hannes Bernard and Louis Braddock Clarke; and from Master Industrial Design, Cynthia Hathaway.
Each will work on individual trajectories but also collaboratively, along with Lector Alice Twemlow, on a range of initiatives and interventions that respond to the central imperative
of the Design & the Deep Future research project.
The Design & the Deep Future project explores ways in which design and art can interpret, intervene in, or mitigate aspects of climate catastrophe, planetary degradation and the loss of biodiversity. Ultimately, the project seeks to propose an expansively iterative repository of alternative climate justice imaginaries.
