Welcome to the re:future Lab, a hybrid hub for transformative learning through the prism of art - initiated by German artist, curator and educator Madeleine Schwinge - designed to help individuals and organizations navigate the uncertainties and fragility of post-industrial life, to find new meaning and vision—and to set into motion, what could be the reconfiguration process, that asks for alternative routes to desirable (and viable) futures in a diverse, sustainable, multi-dependent habitat.
