      Description
      • In recent years, exhibition-making has increasingly engaged with concepts of care, kinship, and restorative interventions. In her Master’s thesis, Leonie Bremser examines contemporary artistic and curatorial practices that work with community-building and participatory approaches, drawing on moments of healing or ecological insights through indigenous knowledge production or ancient rituals. Informed by queer feminist and decolonial perspectives and against the backdrop of the convergence of pressing global crises, these practices aim to challenge oppressive power structures and to raise awareness of our interdependent relationships with other living beings and the earth. Bremser explores how these concerns can be implemented in curatorial practice; for example, by making a diverse cultural program accessible to a broad audience or by creating meeting spaces that enable sensory experiences of togetherness and solidarity. Through her approach she also questions the potential of the museum space.
