(Y)our Practice as a Role Play is an invitation to see artistic practice not as something individual or fixed, but as a constellation of relationships. Starting from the idea that every artist works as a collective, the exercise explores how practices are shaped by people, institutions, materials, references, and conditions, often invisibly.
By drawing their practice, participants shift from explaining what they do to sensing how their practice is lived from within. Perspective plays a central role: where you place yourself changes what becomes visible. The exercise is playful rather than diagnostic, and reflective rather than conclusive. It opens up questions about agency, dependency, power, and care, and invites participants to imagine what might change if they were to occupy a different position within their own constellation.
