The exhibition “Branching Scenarios” revolves around branching. Branching patterns can be found in the growth forms of nature: the branches of a tree, the roots of a plant, the wing of a maple seed. But branching is also one of the metaphors we use to understand the world: evolutionary theory, the division of the world into different categories and subcategories, our family tree.
As a form, branching is a site where many meanings and phenomena can meet and be brought into dialogue. Through photography and drawing, the artist Kirstine Autzen traces connections between different types of branching.
Kirstine Autzen is an artist, photographer, and curator. She engages with themes such as growth, memory, loss, and preservation as interconnected aspects of transformation and change. Through material-based experiments, accumulation, and shifts in scale, she works with open processes and approaches that connect organic and synthetic materials, as well as analog and digital techniques.
LOKALE Prags is one of two exhibition spaces run by LOKALE. LOKALE aims to explore the collaborative conditions for artistic production, curating, and communication. The collective behind LOKALE consists of visual artists, performers, social practitioners, and mediators. What connects the collective is an interest in collaboration, both internally and externally—as a premise for artistic practice and as a meaningful strategy in interaction with the public and the individual.
