| <strong>MASTER CLASS "BOTANICAL ENTANGLEMENTS" with [https://nemer.be BENNY NEMER]</strong>
| |
|
| |
| <span style="color:red">October 27-30, 2025</span>
| |
|
| |
| Within the vast body of sound art being produced today, artists are increasingly producing narrated audio walks, audio guides, and podcasts that accompany and mediate encounters with other artworks, objects, sites, and the sensory world. These interventions often engage critically with the histories of artefacts and places, inviting different readings, subjective positions, fiction, fabulation, and feeling to shape the mode of encounter.
| |
|
| |
| In this four-day masterclass, we will review artistic approaches with which to engage, accompany, mediate, resist, or otherwise encounter the world around us using narrated audio and narration as a creative tool. Participants will research, script, and record their own site-specific audio encounters in response to Ghent’s Botanical Gardens and KASK’s Kunstenbibliotheek.

| <strong>BIO BENNY NEMER:</strong> Benny Nemer is a Montreal-born artist, diarist, and researcher based in Paris. His multidisciplinary practice traces the affective contours of love and longing while facilitating bonds of kinship between his audience, figures from history, and himself, taking form through audio, performance, participatory action, epistolary writing, and flower arranging. He has produced works for the audio guides of museums in Austria, Sweden, Poland, and the United States, as well as non-institutional audio pieces that mediate encounters with libraries, flowers, gay cruising sites, and the rain. Benny is currently a postdoctoral researcher at KASK & Conservatorium, where he is pursuing research into queer kinship, postcards as an artistic medium, and the archive of French author and photographer Hervé Guibert.

| <strong>MASTER CLASS "Scripting the Self and the Collective: Approaching the Colonial Archive" with [https://www.alessandraferrini.info/ ALESSANDRA FERRINI]</strong> | |
| | |
| <span style="color:red">January 26-29, 2026</span> | |
| | |
| This workshop explores how scripting can be used across different artistic media, while also addressing the ethical issues that arise when working with colonial archives and materials.
| |
| | |
| Students are asked to bring an archival photograph that reflects colonial dynamics. This image will act as a starting point for our work, raising questions such as: How do we engage with sensitive material? How do we position ourselves in relation to it?
| |
| | |
| A central theme will be <strong>positionality:</strong> considering how each of us locates ourselves within our own practice, as well as within the institutions and spaces we inhabit.
| |
| | |
| We will experiment with <strong>hybrid approaches to scripting</strong>, particularly those that combine writing, research, and performance, such as performative lectures and essay filmmaking. Students will develop both individual and collaborative scripts.
| |
| | |
| The workshop will focus on <strong>voice and enunciation</strong>: how ideas are spoken and presented, together with critical engagement with documentary material and montage. Our work will culminate in a <strong>collective script</strong> for a performative lecture.
| |
| | |
| Sessions will include writing exercises, practical activities, group readings, and discussions, while introducing students to <strong>research-based approaches to art practice</strong>.
| |
| | |
| <strong>BIO ALESSANDRA FERRINI:</strong> Alessandra Ferrini is an Italian-born, UK-based artist, researcher and educator whose work investigates the enduring legacies of Italian colonialism and Fascism. Her practice spans moving image, installation and performance-lecture, as well as writing, publishing and education. Her work has been included in group exhibitions and international film programmes. She was awarded the Maxxi Bvlgari Prize in 2022, and in 2024 she participated in the 60th Venice Art Biennale’s International Exhibition.

|
| <strong>NOTE: THIS MASTER CLASS IS ORGANISED BY THE MASTER IN PHOTOGRAPHY</strong>
| |
|
| |
| This elective offers a hands-on introduction to exhibition making, guiding students through the process of turning a conceptual idea into a realized project within a two-week timeframe. Following an initial exploration of curatorial theories and approaches in photography, students will develop and produce their own exhibition — from concept to completion — covering all aspects of the production process.
| |
|
| |
| The course also emphasizes scenography and mediation, including writing exhibition texts, creating a publication, and managing communication across social media platforms. Here, photography serves not as the final product but as the point of departure — a medium through which students can explore how two-dimensional images can be translated into spatial experiences.
| |
|
| |
| The curatorial process mirrors this spirit of experimentation and play. Each participating artist will collaborate with a curator from the KASK Curatorial Studies Program, engaging in in-depth dialogue to shape their presentation. These individual projects will then come together in a collective group exhibition that embodies the idea of an exhibition as a "collective body."
| |
|
| |
| The goal is to help students reframe their relationship to their own work, breaking down barriers around production and presentation through a collaborative, empowering learning environment. To further enrich this experience, external guest critics will be invited to review the final exhibition and provide individual feedback.
