LoveLab Initiative is looking for innovative and under-recognized artists who are making significant contributions to their respective fields and are interested to share their ideas with like-minded colleagues within an environment conducive to experimentation and cross-disciplinary explorations.
LoveLab Initiative aims to organize temporary projects in various locations around Wellington, in order to create epic and/or ephemeral works for the love of art's sake of love. Works should deal with dualities such as creation/destruction, life/death, serious/amusing, etc. Thus, works will deal with the notion of ambition with irony, by means of questioning the intrinsic reality of art to be honoured and to honour (whether it's life and/or art) knowing that nothing really matters: what is important, and will remains, is the love, the experience.
As a hint, the various projects/phases will include a proposal for the new arts hub at Toi Poneke, in order to engage with the arts communauty as a ressource for interaction, networking and collaboration; proposals for empty shops in Wellington, aiming to develop significant new projects based on collaborations and cross-disciplines, and in the public realm.
Look forward to hearing from you!
