POC POC 2

POC POC is The Constant Now's network and experimental platform that connects young visual artists of color with art professionals. The project aims to empower new talent by broadening their network and skills. The main goal is to learn from each other and to collaborate with partners, institutions and mentors to make the arts scene more inclusive and diverse.

The second edition, POC POC 2, offers work sessions from January 2023 - June 2024, which include workshops, artists lectures, location visits, private talks, and public presentations.

Kunsthal Gent supports POCPOC 2 through a series of in depth collective work sessions in which we delve into the practices of the participating artists. A public moment will be organized in the fall of 2023.
