what do you make of it now? (with fabienne fuß)
2023.
Improvisation is the basis of bricolage, which is why both concepts have similarities in terms of structure, process and goal. How improvisational bricolage actually takes place was made visible in this project on ‘wild handicrafts’ (Kolhoff-Kahl 2007) as part of the art lessons of a fourth primary school class. The children carried out improvisational strategies, operations and actions by tinkering with collected waste material. They improvised with materials, peers and narratives. In our constantly changing culture, improvising creative solutions for new scenarios is a key skill that art lessons can promote through wild crafting.
