T-Tudok's participation in the international project Eastern Sugar (Creative Europe) 2019-2021
EASTERN SUGAR is an international, interdisciplinary, contemporary visual art project with a strong emphasis on artistic research. The project reflects recent aspects of European history through the Central European sugar industry. The project examines the “purification” process of Central European sugar production through artistic research, curatorial collaboration, the creation of new artworks, five international group exhibitions, participatory installations, public and educational programs, and a comprehensive interdisciplinary publication. Thus, sugar can be understood as a metaphor for the concept of Europe and the world in constant transformation.
EASTERN SUGAR seeks to draw attention to the history of the Central European sugar industry and place it on the global map of sugar history. In doing so, it also considers the colonial impact of the past and present.
