DESCRIPTION:What does the collage of your identity look like? Fragments of 
	Being\, curated by\nstudent-resident Lola Abbas\, explores how young peopl
	e draw on cultural\ninfluences to shape and express their identities. Thei
	r experiments with music\,\nstyle\, and creative expression are brought to
	gether in this exhibition. Discover\ntheir work through sound and vision!\
	n\nMusic and fashion serve as important means to express ourselves and fin
	d a sense\nof belonging with likeminded peers. But what does it mean to be
	long to a\nsubculture today\, when so much of our social and cultural life
	 takes place\nonline? How do we adopt and rework different influences to m
	ake something of our\nown? And how might we consider identity formation as
	 a process of ‘sampling’\nfragments of cultural sources – like a mosaic\, 
	or collage of identity? Is\nsubculture\, to put it bluntly\, still alive?\
	n\nAcross four interactive workshops\, participants from diverse backgroun
	ds\nexplored these questions through creative work\, reflecting on how the
	y shape and\nexpress their identities. The exhibition invites you to encou
	nter their\nperspectives and discover how they bring fragments of differen
	t cultural\ninfluences together into their own curations of self. Their wo
	rk as such offers\na tangible contribution to the field of subcultural you
	th studies\, rooted\ndirectly in young people’s own experiences and creati
	ve expressions.\n\n\nPARTICIPANTS:\n\n\nCURATOR FRAGMENTS OF BEING:
