Mapping the Unseen

24.06.2021 - 26.06.2021

Mapping the Unseen questions societal and cultural discourse about issues of exclusion and invisibility through artistic research.
After the interventions and dialogues in Croatia, Bangladesh, Iran and Austria,
a virtual web-based space is developed as a final step. Through this virtual mapping, an artistic artefact was created that aspires to be an equivalent of the spaces where the interventions and dialogue events took place.
It assembles a collection of the various selected topics, artworks and research materials, as well as academic publications.... It invites interested people from anywhere in the world to interactively explore the different topics via the Internet by discovering, interacting with and extending them through their personal statements and thoughts.
Three evenings are planned for the release of the virtual mapping, with talks, lectures and as a get-together with all the persons who were involved.
Moderation: Maria Bussmann (art and art theory).
24th June 2021, 6–8.30 pm “To get the idea” greenscreen release with short statements by the research team: Katrin Ackerl Konstantin (artistic research), Andreas Hudelist (audience interviews), Regina Klein (depth hermeneutic cultural analysis), Rosalia Kopeinig (biographical work) and Martina Ukowitz (intervention research and transdisciplinary research).
