Is it possible to develop an artistic practice differently – with less production pressure, less consumption, and more collaboration, care, and long-term thinking?

At this consultation table, Alexandra Papademetriou will be available for chats with artists, producers, curators, and other cultural workers interested in bringing degrowth principles into their own work. The conversation can be entirely concrete or more exploratory: from questions about production, touring, and materials to broader reflections on how to create culture that contributes not only to artistic but also to social and environmental transformation.

Alexandra Papademetriou has developed a degrowth methodology for artistic practice that encourages creators to reflect on how and why they create. The methodology offers practical tools for working in the cultural sector ¬– and yes, it also includes a step on “hacking” calls for proposals. You can follow her steps, or you can simply pitch your question, dilemma, or challenge to Alexandra.

Host: Alexandra Papademetriou, artist, researcher, and creator of the Degrowth Toolbox for Artistic Practices project (GR, SE)
