Jan van Eyck Academie Open Studios 2021

Ignace Cami
Every year, during Open Studios, the doors of the Jan van Eyck Academie are open for visitors and professionals. The participating artists, designers, architects, curators, and writers present their work in their studios, the public spaces, labs and gardens of the academy. The departments for Nature Research, Art & Society and Research & Education show their current projects.
Unlike the traditional moment for Open Studios in March each year, the 2021 Open Studios took place in June/July. 43 participants revealed their current projects. After months of closed art venues and without physical encounters with contemporary art, a visit to the Jan van Eyck was a real treat. This year it also literally started with a traction, with the invitation of Ignace Cami to have a cookie. This introduction is  suitable for the welcoming spirt of the JVE participants, who in their work are also concerned with the relationship between man and nature.
This was also clearly expressed in Trash Collective presention, a collective that emerged from discussions and experiments between Aàdesokan, Arvid & Marie, Boram Soh and David Habets. Together, they are displaying changing identities and movements of waste through landscapes in Lagos and Maastricht. During her residency, Aliki van der Kruijs spent a lot of time in the Enci Groeve and she translated this into research with natural materials. The research collective The Soft Protest Digest centers its research around food history, agriculture and the social and political ties to what constitutes a food culture, aiming to design environmentally resilient diets. Lisa Ertel and Jannis Zell visualize thoughts around matter and time as well as nature and culture. Together they materialize the veiled histories, modes of representation, and conditioning of everyday objects through artistic and design-based approximation. Together they collect nonhuman artifacts, or biofacts, to bring back to their studio. These objects and traces become part of a growing Wunderkammer that the designers plumb for associative shapes and images.

These are some examples of approaches to the 2020/2021 participants.
