This workshop is recommended for art students and those studying Japanese.
Participants must be aged 10 or over. Those aged 15 or under must be accompanied by an adult.
This workshop brings together two groups of participants—arts faculty students and students of Japanese language—across three convivial sessions shaped by dialogue and exchange. At its core lies a guiding question: How does a collective identity align with the needs and wishes of individual identity?
In this workshop, participants explore national and individual identities through collage and assemblage. By bringing their own skills, methods, and cultural knowledge, participants contribute to creating a shared, collaborative space.
By combining perspectives from artistic practice with those rooted in Japanese language and culture, the project opens space for dynamic and unexpected visual dialogues around belonging, national narratives, and the shaping of personal experience.

Tenthaus Art Collective is an Oslo-based artist collective that has been working together in various constellations since 2009. Their art practice emphasizes process, focusing on community engagement, collectivity, and inclusivity.
Presentated by Tenthaus, the OVEN Network is a transnational network for artistic exchange. Rooted in collaboration the Oven brings together collectives across Southeast Asia and the Nordics to foster shared learning co-thinking and long-term engagement. We view art and design not as outcomes but as tools for observation friction and transformation.
It takes shape through art projects exhibitions research residencies workshops publications gatherings and moments of exchange adapting to the context around it. We welcome those with a shared curiosity to think collectively hold space for difference and explore new ways of moving forward.
