We're at the second episode of the second season with a second guest and a second presenter. Niels is back to talk with Harriet Rose Morley.
Harriet (She/Her) is a multi-disciplinary artist, maker, and educator currently based in The Hague. The projects and works she produces aim to challenge the conceptions, potentiality and the function of public art through engagement and collaboration. Through exploring relationships between care and therapy, self-organisation, alternative education and self-build ideals, she creates and develops accessible and inclusive tools which can be used to tackle matters of urgency within art and/in public space, through workshops, conversations, educational events and the building of physical spaces.
She is also a student at the MAFA program at the HKU in Utrecht and is diagnosed with Dyslexia. We talk about the notion of Care Rider, (a document which states your personal needs when entering an agreement) how it was introduced to her by Staci Bushea and Miriam Wistreich, it’s genealogy and how it can be a tool to assist with the issues neurodivergent artists face in a neoliberal and far developed capitalistic market place as well as institutional education. Touching on topics surrounding the exploitative working situations we find ourselves in, the conditions of being an art worker and how the tool of the Rider can provide accountability and boundaries within working relationships.
