Humlab Showcase

Dialectical Imaginaries was an artistic collaboration between Miguel Hernández University Altea, Spain, Humlab and Umeå konsthögskola that took place from 2020 to 2021. This collaboration included visits to each respective location, exhibitions, exchange of theory and culture, as well as regular meetings via Zoom and VR Chat. The meetings continue to this day.

The project aimed to use artistic methods to formulate questions around topics such as:

• Our different geographical positions
• Our different artistic expressions
• Our relationship to what can be called centre and periphery.
• How we as artists communicate our results.
• How we deepen the collaboration between Altea and Umeå.

The project culminated in a series of texts and filmed interviews primarily shown in a Spanish context. A collected publication is planned to be completed in 2023.
