THE INSTITUTE staat voor het verspreiden van alternatieve en ongewaardeerde technieken en tactieken om talen aan te leren. Tegelijkertijd stelt The Institute zich vragen over wat wordt gevalideerd als taal-didactiek. / THE INSTITUTE is created to make alternative and under-valued language-learning techniques and tactics more accessible. At the same time, The Institute raises questions in regards to language-learning pedagogy and what gets validated as such.

As one of the On Mobilisation artists, Kalle Brolin was invited to “ghost” the artistic process of Elisabetta Consonni during her last residency session when she was finalising her artistic research “How to become a platypus”, leading towards the premiere.

In 2024 Lavanderia hosted the artistic research of Elisabetta Consonni, and facilitated a development of the ongoing project “Special Handling” that finally generated a new performative device: “How to become a Platypus”.

After the awakening of Spring, the new season heats up and brings us to a boil, preparing the ground for revolt: the solar horizon rises and so bodies and voices soar ever higher to the point of overthrowing the politics of the present.

The exhibition took place at Lavanderia a Vapore from May 29 – May 31, 2024, investigating the theme of mobilising imaginaries and bodies to generate collective actions for alternative political scenarios.

Three evenings about and with the peace movement in Gotland

As one of the On Mobilisation artists, Ahilan Ratnamohan was invited to “ghost” the artistic process of Daniele Ninarello, and to inhabit the Evening School on Care that took place during his residency at Lavanderia a Vapore.
