DOCULEKTIV: Archiving as Curatorial Exercise in (Re)Imagining Gathering and Collectivity in the Time of Physical Distancing

Roselle Pineda presenting DOCULEKTIV: Archiving as Curatorial Exercise in (Re)Imagining Gathering and Collectivity in the Time of Physical Distancing

Respondent: Lucas Ihlein

 

This presentation is a discussion on the AARPS (art) collective’s curatorial exercise in documentation and archiving their virtual gatherings and creative processes during the pandemic, which resulted to the concept and production of DOCULEKTIV — a three-part video of curated conversations that was released from June to July 2020. This archiving project seeks to explore the role of curation in reimagining community, collectivity, and gathering in the time of physical distancing.
