Kontejner

This year we have selected bio-art artist Margherita Pevere as our EMAP - European Media Art Platform artist in residence. During her residency in Dubrovnik and Zagreb, Pevere will investigate materiality and desires of the female body in the framework of the absence of maternity, as a physical, ecological and political experience. Pevere will work on a production of the artwork Wombs, focused not only on redefining perception on the absence of maternity through research on philosophical theories dealing with leaky bodies but also critically reflecting on the influence of the anthropogenic chemicals. During her stay in Croatia, the artist will engage in numerous art+science workshops for children and adults, lectures, open studio event and other activities open to the general public.
