MOSAÏQUE

Works in Process

​

MOSAÏQUE is a showcase of artistic processes, focusing on the unfinished and raw aspects of creation rather than the polished, finished work. 

​

​//WHAT:

MOSAÏQUE is a workshop like format focusing on the process itself; the „failed“ and unfinished parts of it and celebrates the moment of raw creation, instead of presenting finished and polished work. Each edition has its own theme that is centered around problems artists face in their artistic practice. It encourages artists to exchange working methods across different disciplines by opening up their individual process and sharing intermediate states.

​

//WHY:

The format sees itself as a contribution to collective learning and aims to counteract the cliché that artists have finished their education after studies and the associated „secrecy“ surrounding their own working methods. MOSAÏQUE responds to the need of artists, creatives and researchers not only to present finished projects, but also to allow exchange of the current state of research, development processes and working methods, and wants to give this exchange its own space.


//HOW:

You dare to open up your process, we take care of the ideal frame for you. We prepare professional and individual feedback methods and moderate the conversation. You get honest feedback to your current state of process, the other participants and the audience get an insight into different creative working methods and all together benefit from an inspiring exchange. Our methods based on the DasArts Feedback Method are constantly developed from each edition. MOSAÏQUE itself is a process where we integrate your feedback.​​​​​​​​​

MOSAÏQUE 09

OPEN CALL for non-binary artists, creatives & researchers
from all disciplines — apply until 01.05.26

​

MOSAÏQUE 09 invites you to share work-in-progress, reflect on your methods and enter a collective exchange beyond binaries — together with others across disciplines.

This edition is developed in collaboration with the Berlin-based non-binary collective LIK. Together, we create a moderated, care-based space for feedback, discussion and experimentation — where unfinished work becomes the starting point for new perspectives.

Selected participants will:


– present their process in a public sharing (06.06.26)


– receive tailored feedback methods for their project


– engage in a moderated exchange with audience & peers


– take part in preparation, follow-up and experimentation sessions at Das LOT

We are looking for projects that are still in development and can be shared in a simple technical setup.
You bring your process — we hold the space.

​
