Collective research
Eavatea
In partnership with nadine, f.eks and several artists, Jubilee developed a mapping tool for artistic practices. Titled Eavatea, the tool for developing, visualising, archiving and relating practices, it is specifically designed for sharing practices that do not present themselves easily in conventional exhibition contexts: research-based, often in situ, nomadic, collective, ephemeral, interdisciplinary or cross-disciplinary practices. It is currently a working prototype, and is presented during Archipelago of Artistic Practices, a one-year programme of presentations, performances, conversations, walks, and more at nadine, Kunsthal Gent, and M HKA/CKV, from summer 2024 to summer 2025.
