At Abastan arts, research and community organising come together. Although we are not an art residency, many of Abastan members are artists and artisans. We believe that art offers a powerful platform and means for reflection.
During our last season we worked with carpentry, ceramics, painting, printing, textile arts, animation, photography, theater and more, and we plan similar activities for the coming season. In addition to the “manual” workshops, we also organised events with guest speakers who gave talks and led discussions around our main themes of the year.
