Márk Redele
Márk Redele is project coordinator at Sandberg Research where they contribute to the development and operation of postgraduate research activities in the academy. They studied architecture in their origin country, Hungary, and received a master's degree from Studio for Immediate Spaces in 2016. Since then, they have been a practicing artist pursuing self-initiated and commission-based works with a strong emphasis on material discovery. In their practice materials become the protagonists of stories personal and public, factual and fictive. These stories interrogate the subversive potential of simple material qualities such as porosity, softness and fluidity as well as the possibility of kinship, love and reconciliation in vibrant matter, under repressive conditions.

Materiality – Rietveld and Sandberg students are invited to join our workshop Material Temporalities on 6 November. This workshop offers a rare opportunity to visit and work in the Atelier Building of the Rijksmuseum. During the first part of the workshop you will receive an in-depth introduction to the workshops and laboratories at NICAS, exploring different temporalities of art-making through the lens of material-based research. In the second part of the workshop students will be invited to engage in exercises and discussion evolving from their own material experimentations through the lens of preservation and restoration.
