In order to discuss and digress the issues and subjectivity faced across society, challenge the seemingly lack of in the artistic space as well being a support to communities in response to the the disparities faced, a practice is formed around these topics for a response and message. 

Questions raised from this lecture: 
Does the process of individualism seem to be hindered ? 
Does the practice Necessarily have to relate to the overall collective?  ]]> 2021-10-14 20:31:04 UTC https://padlet.com/kchikumbindi02202011/mdqpguesk17flr7q/wish/1818101755 kchikumbindi02202011 https://padlet.com/kchikumbindi02202011/mdqpguesk17flr7q/wish/1818103603 2021-10-14 20:32:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kchikumbindi02202011/mdqpguesk17flr7q/wish/1818103603 kchikumbindi02202011 https://padlet.com/kchikumbindi02202011/mdqpguesk17flr7q/wish/1818104503 2021-10-14 20:33:08 UTC https://padlet.com/kchikumbindi02202011/mdqpguesk17flr7q/wish/1818104503 kchikumbindi02202011 https://padlet.com/kchikumbindi02202011/mdqpguesk17flr7q/wish/1819750152 The discussions of the purpose of forming collectives and their importance towards communities through response and communication was intriguing. Being in which, these collectives provide a sense of communal space and support in areas that the govt seem to deprive from, the idea of collectives being responsible for change wether it’s providing or responding towards certain world elements is also crucial, but does that blend into social work more, rather than the therapeutic representation art is perceived to be?. 

Wether art should inherit social influxes or be the spiritual gathering to heal certain relative elements is completely judged on the preference, however with the way society is evolving it seems to be part of the artist’s responsibility to confront and challenge certain views. Certain fears alludes to art being “too simplistic, than valued for challenge and truthfulness”,wether that hinders the individualism of the work is to be seen. 
It’s important to note the importance of collectives is to communicate and converse certain issues. 

Phrases collected from the session: 
“Is art formatting into social work?”
“Is it an artist’s responsibility to be the change for the world in a post pandemic world?”  

“Does the idea of art need to be disruptive towards others rather than the procedural process of showcase?”]]> 2021-10-15 14:20:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kchikumbindi02202011/mdqpguesk17flr7q/wish/1819750152 kchikumbindi02202011 https://padlet.com/kchikumbindi02202011/mdqpguesk17flr7q/wish/1824198171 As the link to the previous discussions of collectives, the idea of collaboration can take shape in many forms, such as the partnership of artists and galleries, ideal collectives as well as the collaboration of artist and specialists in other forms of subject criteria.
