Guided by cyclical principles, Nelund will lead the group through five phases, exploring questions such as: Where does fear arise in the creative process? Who and what are we afraid of?

This underlying fear drive hinders art production and <em>Who&#8217;s Afraid of Fear?<\/em> sets outto find ways to localize and transform this fear and release what fear holds back. Taking inspiration from Black African American embodiment traditions and South American hospicing modernity practices, Sidsel Nelund will, over a series of sharing sessions, weave together a hybrid method that is at once theoretical, communal, and emotional. Rooted in the cyclical creativity approach she has developed over the past decade, these sessions will explore fear with curiosity and connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nelund hopes to inspire a practice of courageous togetherness. Since fear both binds people and disperses them, what might happen if we gather to normalize fear and find ways to move beyond it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The investigation is conducted as part of a book project that Sidsel Nelund explores through the <em>Testing Ground<\/em> residency, an AHC public programme aimed at providing artistic researchers with the opportunity to test ideas and methods in practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/arthubcopenhagen.net\/en\/program\/testing-ground\/\">Read more about <em>Who is Afraid of Fear?<\/em> here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/arthubcopenhagen.net\/en\/profile\/sidsel-nelund\/\">Read more about Sidsel Nelund here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Join us for a workshop with art researcher, non-fiction writer, and cyclical agent Sidsel Nelund, who will bring together art professionals to explore the subject of fear.
