Red River Acupuncture: Lessons from the mud
Community participation in art, through the perspective of Vietnamese and German artists
Anmeldung zur Teilnahme
‘Acupuncture’ is one of the ways Floating University Berlin described their presence at the Red River bank area over the past two weeks during their short residency as part of the ‘Community Garden’ project initiated by Goethe-Institut Hanoi, the French Institute in Hanoi, and Think Playgrounds. Through their artistic practices, French, German, and Vietnamese artists aimed to activate the ecological narratives during the rapid development phase of Vietnam’s capital city.
In a space operated by the local community, where and how should the needles be placed to stimulate meaningful discussions? After the historic flood and the lingering mud on the Red River’s banks, how should art and community development projects be conducted appropriately?
