Through their reflexive participation in the Virtual360 Konnect – Emerging Arts Leaders Residency Series, Minji Chun from Korea & Micah Pinto from the Philippines investigate how the current global conditions and the changing creative landscapes affect, and continuously reshape our experiences of exploration, collaboration & production.
Several months into the lockdowns caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, global communities have been forced to rethink and recalibrate current systems. And while constraints on mobility have been affecting artmaking and artistic collaboration, we began to ask questions that led to a web of inquiry: how will residency programs be experienced in new environments we create physically and digitally? How will artistic activities and creative experiences be realised online and offline? How can real collaborations be cultivated?
