Autonomy Lab (2024)

For WdKA’s Autonomous Practices, autonomy is not an answer, but an open question. Studying Autonomous Practices at WdKA means, for students and teachers, to ask how autonomy can be understood & how and for whom it can be practiced and created. This is an open-ended, collective and long-term critical research project.

WdKA’s Autonomous Practices investigate autonomy in relation to bottom-up practices that position themselves as interdependent, selfdirected, and often without predefined outcomes whose methods of working are constantly being (re)invented and tested.
