Falke Pisano

analytisch - sociaal-maatschappelijk

My practice is a way of thinking about/in the world with a particular focus on how certain enduring ideas, divisions, institutions and systems have developed (historically, culturally) and how art and artist might play a role in questioning and challenging them. We read the world over and over again with the knowledge we gather in different ways and, placing ourselves within those readings, we might try to carve out spaces of action and relation. I try to articulate and share this process, usually in the form of long-term research cycles. Having been struck, lately, by the reproduction of a certain rationality in my work and language, I am trying to move from an authorial position based in critical research, intentionality and self-reflection to one that responds to violent and exploitative systems by giving voice to affect, desire and disarticulation.
