Conceived and co-organised by Emma Cocker, Alexander Damianisch, Cordula Daus and Lena Séraphin, this Society of Artistic Research Special Interest Group (SAR SIG) provides contexts for coming together via the exchange of language-based research. The intent is to support developments in the field of expanded language-based practices by inviting attention, time and space for enabling understanding of/and via these practices anew.

A visual, emotional & conceptual archive of performative installations that anticipated the LGP Method's integrative logic. This article presents a series of digital collages created through the daily reworking of personal archives—photos, performance records, and installations. These images are not final works but affective documents in motion. They explore the blurred boundaries between memory, artwork, and archive. This visual practice is part of the ongoing evolution of the LGP Method, showing how transformation and process are central to its structure. After the method's formalization, a new identity—New Art—emerged, emphasizing mobility, reinvention, and the spiritual-emotional dimension of creative work. This archive also acknowledges the valuable collaborations with artists, performers, and institutions who engaged with different stages of the process, activating the method from multiple perspectives.

This exposition contains documentation of the artistic result of Magnhild Øen Nordahls artistic research PhD project Unmaking Abstractions. The exposition also contains the artistic reflection for the same project. On the exposition's landing page the reader can access its different components by clicking different sides of the unfolded cube. The rotating cube in the upper right corner will bring the reader back to the landing page.

This exposition brings together the epistemologies of art-making and translation. It presents a series of artworks the curators commissioned for a travelling exhibition on ‘Experiential Translation’ (2022-2025). Many of the works were created under the auspices of the Experiential Translation Network, which facilitates collaboration and exchange between translators, writers, poets, artists and scholars from across the globe. The concept of ‘experiential translation’ as elaborated by Campbell and Vidal (2019, 2024, 2025), highlights embodied, multimodal communication as a performative inquiry into meaning-making. Blending art and translation practices, experiential translation values materiality, participation, and co-creation. Rather than mere transfer of meaning, translation is seen as a process of discovery, research, and knowledge production, embracing the unknown and exploring that which escapes language. Encouraging a rhizomatic viewing experience, the exposition is structured into three interconnected thematic 'rooms', Serial Metamorphosis, (Un)repetition and Ludic Translation, which can be visited in any order, or even simultaneously. The exposition includes video art, performance, (interactive) installation, sound art, poetry, painting and photography. This work was supported by the AHRC under Grant AH/V008234/1, awarded to Ricarda Vidal (PI) and Madeleine Campbell (Co-I) . Ethical Clearance Reference Number (King’s College London): MRA-22/23-34543
