SCHOOL OF DISOBEDIENCE
condition-building
for individual artists
You can become extremely good at applying and remain completely dependent on being chosen.
This path is for you if…
- You can make the work, but struggle to make it exist beyond the studio.
- Your projects depend too much on grants, invitations, open calls, or institutional selection.
- Your work exists, but does not circulate enough or reach the people you want it to reach.
- You don’t yet know how to create formats, proposals, income, or opportunities around your practice.
- You want to become more capable of initiating and sustaining your work without waiting for someone else to make it possible.
We don't teach you how to become a better applicant. We develop your capacity to initiate, circulate, and build the conditions your practice needs to continue. You will work with:
- Formats
- Audiences
- Positioning
- Circulation
- Money
- Distribution
- Autonomy
Condition-building
level 1 - online
Build the structures your practice needs.
You don’t struggle to make work.
You struggle to make it exist.
This online program helps you build formats, audiences, positioning, prices, circulation and income around the practice you already have, without reshaping the work to fit a market, a grant or somebody else’s expectations.
The aim is to create your own financial and structural alternatives: several ways for the same practice to exist, reach people and generate resources.
Level 1 gives you the foundations to depend less exclusively on someone else’s yes or no, and start building conditions that belong to your work.

Condition-building
level 2 - Budapest
You have the foundations. Now make them real.
This is not a beginner program. You arrive with a format, audience, positioning and economic logic already defined, either through Level 1 or through your own previous work.
During a 10-day residency in Budapest, you build, test, communicate, price, pilot and launch what you have designed. You work with real people, real deadlines, first partners, first audiences and first responses.
Level 2 is where the material leaves the notebook and enters the world. You leave with a working structure already in motion.
