Projects made by by Annette Mees and Friends

We live in a world that needs a lot of imagination. This is a complex time of slow crisis. To create better futures, you first have to imagine alternatives to the now and the expected.

Bringing people together across disciplines to think through complex ideas is a generative process. Creative processes are different from the scientific method, but both have their own forms of rigour. Our artistic work is deeply rooted in research, coalitions and collaborations. Always aimed at discovering what could be.

Art and culture is a space which experiments with alternative modes of living, making and working. Audience Labs aims to make imaginative work that can inspire new realities.
