• Researcher lectorate Economy as a Common Centre of Expertise Brede Welvaart en Nieuw Ondernemerschap

  • Sep 2021 - Present

  The Sustainable Strategy and Innovation research group conducts research into a new economy. An economy that contributes to the well-being of all. An economy in which people live in harmony with each other and with our planet. We live in an era where everything seems possible, where every dream can come true. But we are reaching the limits of what our planet can sustain. We have not yet even succeeded in ending poverty, inequality and exclusion. We work on those new economies by: * making a start, getting down to work and trying things out * learning from those who do things differently * connecting old and new wisdom and innovative technology * combining thought, action and the power of imagination * nurturing creativity and evolving insights * getting everyone involved * giving radical changes a chance This is how we create new players, playing fields and rules. We can produce our own, too. An economy that as designed by us, can also be reshaped by us. SUSTAIN From the lectorate, I am involved as a researcher in the two-year SUSTAIN program. There we are researching the role and practice of innovation brokers: third parties who are able to connect the worlds of entrepreneurship and art in a sustainable way. In SUSTAIN we want to enrich the body of knowledge and the tools available to these innovation brokers. By investing in this professional group with practice-based research, we hope to create a leverage effect towards a sustainable economy: we contribute to the effectiveness of the cooperation between the innovation spheres of art and entrepreneurship.

• Lecturer Master Institute of Visual Cultures / Program: Rethinking the Artist Economy

  • Sep 2009 - Present

  In an ambition and desire to create work that is valuable, artists and designers can quickly find themselves in strong friction with the current economy and its conditions and demands. In this program, we aim to explore how we can navigate our own ability to sustain a livelihood, without entirely submitting to systems and beliefs that we often point out as highly questionable within our work. While the Ecology (from ancient Greek oikos (νόμος) and logos (λόγος), thus “study of the house”) explores the relationship of living beings among each other and with their physical environment, Economics (from the ancient Greek oikos (οἶκος), house, and nomos (νόμος), rule) can be understood as the rules and management of that very system. Looking at the close relationship of these two words, we aim to explore and define, what ecology (relationships) we situate ourselves in, and what house rules (economics) we want to apply to it. In this program, we rethink our current artistic "household" and together formulate an artistic economy that is virtuous and follows means of mutual care rather than values like individual profit and exploitation, as we know from current globalized capitalism. Because the matter we are rethinking is complex, metaphors are helpful in our way of thinking. For that reason, this program takes place in the best imaginable place namely De Kleine Aarde (The Little Earth) in Boxtel, a place entirely dedicated to agricultural transition: a renewed balance between people and nature, where we begin to see ourselves as part of nature and are willing to learn from nature's vitality, resilience, agility, and diversity. Seasons and forms of growth and fertility are the soul of this place. It shows us how balanced nature is and what it can teach us, knowing that nature is never part of current economic models.
