About this exposition

en
This exposition is a harvest of ‘Massaging The Asylum System’, a year-long collaboration between refugee justice centre Trampoline House (DK) and neurodiverse collective Project Art Works (UK) by co-curator Carlota Mir. As a lumbung practice, harvest refers to artistic recordings of discussions and meetings. Together, we set out to explore how migrant and neurodivergent communities are affected by social systems of care and control, and we sought ways to massage the asylum system – yes, massage, like a real massage – so that it could become softer and more humane. Bringing together the vision and artistic tools from both organisations, our work became a temporary coalition of dissident bodies.  Organised in a series of concentric circles and islands, the map revisits the ecosystem of the project and its traces: informal encounters, public conversations, art installations, and two workshop series in Copenhagen and Kassel, reflecting a multitude of voices from artists, collective members, facilitators, activists, publics, and the lumbung community. The collaboration between Trampoline House and Project Art Works was initiated by Carlota Mir and Sara Alberani in the context of documenta fifteen and funded with common resources from the lumbung Collective Pot.  With support from the Danish Arts Foundation and the Italian Council. Publication design: Laura Migueláñez and Orestis Nikolaidis. Thanks to lumbung inter-lokal, Trampoline House and Project Art Works communities for their generosity and the knowledge shared, which has made this harvest possible.

Expositionen skördar från projektet “Massaging The Asylum System,” ett ettårigt samarbete mellan flyktingrättcentret Trampoline House (Danmark) och det neurodiversa kollektivet Project Art Works (Storbritianien), lett av medkurator Carlota Mir. Utifrån en lumbung-praktik syftar "skörd" på konstnärliga dokumentationer av diskussioner och möten. Tillsammans utforskade vi hur flykting- och neurodivergenta grupper påverkas av sociala system för omsorg och kontroll. Vi sökte olika sätt att "massera" asylsystemet – ja, massera, som en riktig massage – så att det skulle kunna bli mjukare och mer humant. Genom att förena visionen med konstnärliga verktyg från båda organisationerna blev vårt arbete en tillfällig koalition av dissidenta kroppar. Kartan, som är organiserad i en serie koncentriska cirklar och öar, återbesöker projektets ekosystem och dess spår: informella möten, offentliga samtal, konstinstallationer och två workshopserier i Köpenhamn och Kassel. Den återspeglar en mängd röster från konstnärer, kollektivmedlemmar, facilitatorer, aktivister, allmänheten och lumbung-gemenskapen. Samarbetet mellan Trampoline House och Project Art Works initierades av Carlota Mir och Sara Alberani inom ramen för documenta fifteen och finansierades med gemensamma resurser från lumbung Collective Pot. Med stöd från den danska konststiftelsen och det italienska rådet. Design av exposition: Laura Migueláñez och Orestis Nikolaidis. Tack till lumbung inter-lokal, Trampoline House och Project Art Works-gemenskaperna för deras generositet och delade kunskap, som har gjort denna skörd möjlig.
