Superior Fakes

Anna Ehrenstein
Superior Fakes
 

In Slovenian, German and English

A three-hour workshop at the intersection of material culture, social media, collage works and power asymmetries. What do we actually think of when we hear the word fake? An imitation? Adibas? Fingernails? Bitches and Tits? China? Tech? Rolex? As part of this workshop, we will create collage works based on your personal, favourite fake. How significant are the laws of intellectual property for work, nations, Instagram and Kanye West? We will look at the relationality between fakes, our own or others’ identity, cultural bias, politics and how all of this can be an inspiration to create speculative and imaginary artworks.
