B: think lab - theory meets practice.
The Think Lab provides the shared foundation for working together in the creative workshops.
It connects theory, lived experience and artistic practice, creating a common ground for discussion, reflection and informed artistic action.
Rather than academic lectures, the Think Lab uses dialogue-based formats, films, texts and encounters. These inputs support the creative workshops by sharpening perspectives, opening questions and linking individual experiences to broader political and social contexts.
