In April 2025, I took part in Art Intensive Berlin, a month-long residency and research program aimed at connecting international artists and cultural workers with Berlin’s contemporary art infrastructure. The program combined institutional visits, workshops, and weekly one-on-one mentorship sessions focused on project development and navigating local funding systems.
Throughout the residency, I met with curators, artists, and organizers from a range of institutions and independent spaces. These exchanges offered a deeper understanding of Berlin’s cultural networks and opened up conversations around collaboration, sustainability, and working transnationally.
During the program, I began developing my ongoing project Chrysalis, which examines pregnancy as a site of metamorphosis and identity dissolution. The project was first shared as a work-in-progress during the final public symposium.
