Residency
In the project With a View of the Dream, Marina Naprushkina examines current forms of extractivism under patriarchal power in today’s authoritarian systems as well as access to resource-securing recreation. The focus is on the changes in urban and rural landscapes, their increasing exclusivity – and thus the question: Who owns the most beautiful view?
The effects on ecosystems and working bodies are examined. The research period ranges from the 1990s to the present at the Serpentara. Feminist-influenced practices and narratives make alternative forms of access and resource use visible.
