Book Launch "Configurations of Time" @SanSerriffe 1 Feb, 6–8pm, Amsterdam

I’m excited to share that my first book, Configurations of Time: Imagining Other Temporalities in the Art Residency, is now out, published by Set Margins'. To celebrate, I’ll be speaking about it with artist and friend Marianna Maruyama at San Serriffe in Amsterdam on February 1, at 6:00 PM. If you’re in town, I’d love to see you there!

We’ll also be distributing special posters on this occasion, designed by the incredibly talented Cleo Tse, who worked wonders on the book itself.

If you are not in Amsterdam, you can purchase the book directly from Set Margins’. Thank you to the Mondriaan Fund for its generous support.

“Sandberg Rietveld After Life Sessions" 16-01-2025

Join me on 16 January, for the “Sandberg Rietveld After Life Sessions”! The afternoon will be dedicated to residencies, featuring presentations on residencies in the Netherlands (such as the Rijksakademie, Jan van Eyck, de Ateliers, Hotel Maria Kapel, Kunsthuis Syb, and DutchCulture, focusing on international opportunities). I will introduce some of the most recent topics discussed in the residency field and offer a sneak preview of my new book, Configurations of Time. This event welcomes current and former students of the Rietveld Academy and the Sandberg Institute, as well as anyone interested in residency programs.

My Book is Out! Configurations of Time

I'm thrilled to announce the publication of my new book, Configurations of Time: Imagining Other Temporalities in the Art Residency! Published by Set Margins at the end of 2024, this work is the result of years of research and curatorial practice—a true labor of love.

The book explores how we process art—and life—inside residency time, drawing on speculative storytelling, analytical perspectives, and first-hand experiences. It examines how time is experienced in residencies through overlapping concepts of space time, care time, and soil time, offering fresh insights into the ethics of residencies in today's fast-paced world. 

Whether you’ve participated in a residency, plan to take part in one, support artists’ processes, or are fascinated by theories of time and how artists engage with it, this book is for you.

Configurations of Time is available now through Set Margins’ website here.

Stay tuned for updates on upcoming events and conversations around the book—I’d love to see you there!
