VALUES

Explorations of Perception

RR brings together theoretical and perception-based experiments that challenge conditioned ways of seeing. RR is interested in projects that re-evaluate anthropocentric habits of thinking and looking; projects that open dialogues between Western and non-Western traditions of image-making and ways of seeing; projects that critically explore the production of technical images; and projects that foster transhistorical and non-linear (visual) narratives.
