Concept
Risk Change aimed to research, disseminate and promote interdisciplinary art practices as they relate to social and applied sciences, with a focus on contemporary migration and the integration of minority communities. Education and audience development was a particular priority of the project, and was delivered through art and touring residencies, exhibitions, lectures, conferences and educational modules across the partner countries (Slovenia, Serbia, Croatia, Hungary, France, UK, Latvia, Netherlands and Malta).
The project officially launched in June 2016 and ended in August 2020.
Awards and awarded works
There were four editions of the White Aphroid Award (2016–19), with a single winner in each of the two categories, artistic achievement and educational achievement, to reflect the twin concerns of the Risk Change project. The winners received EUR 1,500 and a White Aphroid statuette.
The juries for each of the awards comprised experts from the partner institutions. The ceremonies were held at KIBLA Multimedia Centre.
