RESIDENCY
AHILAN RATNAMOHAN
Last month Ahilan Ratnamohan graced wpZimmer with his language-obsessed artistic practice. During his stay Ahilan worked on a new project: The Institute for Anarchic and Artistic Language Learning, in the style of the Goethe Institut, Alliance Francaise or The British Council. But 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.
During his residency he was joined by artists Elisabetta Consonni and Marika Smerkovà (and her sweet daughter Marina).
This residency is part of On Mobilisation, a bottom-up project focussing on community mobilisation through artistic processes. This project is co-funded by the European Union.
