Podcast Transcript: Lab Session 1 Reflections — Lobadys Pérez
Dear friends Many things impressed me when I was in Africa for the first time. The gateway was Uganda and the meeting with incredible artists at 32 degrees was the point of important reflections. The heterogeneity of the proposals and points of view from which they are built make Campala’s artistic production strongly related to […]

Before the labs, my approach to research and concept development was very linear. If I had a question, the research involved looking for a direct answer to the question that I had. For example if I asked you what a bird is, you probably say that it is a creature that flies. During the labs, […]

Something that Molemo said during one of the sessions really stood out to me then and I keep coming back to it. She was talking about how important it is to be really voracious in your consumption of art, of theory, of context, as a way to learn more things and really immerse yourself in […]

I was struggling with concept development which was answered by research, so there is no way you can inform me of work without research. You have to go deep and make research about something and then all these levels of creating everything and then translating everything to an art visual or a composition, at least […]
Podcast Transcript: Lab Session 1 Reflections — Alison Nadunga
My biggest take on the lab sessions has been learning and unlearning so many things. I was and still am an extremely structured person and it gets challenging and intimidating when the structure is removed from things and information is left open-ended.

I was kind of stuck in one medium, photography — I was more inclined towards books since I like reading books and the like, so concept development really helped me in — “how do I break out of my usual circle into other circles?. Interacting with different people, I like Lobady’s way of “how do […]

My initial approach to research and concept development before the labs, in summary, I would refer it to the conception of a baby in a mother womb. It was at the future stage. Initially, I looked at research and concept development as restricted to using a lot of my brain and doing a lot of […]
Podcast Transcript: Lab Session 1 Reflections — Trevor Aloka
I was really excited, well just to dive into the whole programme but the Research and Concept Development Labs were particularly important for me because naturally in my artistic process I do like to dive heavily into research.

In the day, the lamppost stands mostly ignored. Taking the hot with the cold, the wind and the wet in silence. We children armed with slingshots hunting sparrows and pigeons would often use the street lamp for target practice. Popping bulbs of the street light was accidental, it became a pastime for some. The municipal […]
