Creative production is the dynamic process of transforming imaginative concepts and ideas into tangible artistic and cultural works. At its core, creative production involves the coordination and integration of various elements, such as artistic thinking, strategic planning, budgeting, resource management, collaboration, and execution.
Creative Production
My work intersects production, research, dramaturgy, curation, facilitation and communication – always departing from notions of relationality. By looking at production as performative practice, I am interested in exploring process-based methods and strategies of artistic and cultural co-creation.
»All organizing is science fiction«
— adreanne maree brown
As a creative producer, I am interested soft structures, that elastically work with notions of time and tensions, as caring supporters of diverse visions. Departing from an intersectional, queer-feminist approach I am dedicated to the practices of figuring-out and the continuos learning, un-learning and rethink that goes together with producing and organizing.
Trained in Systemic Counceling, I am focused on sustainable and resource oriented approaches to Creative Production.
