Nadine Gouders
Nadine Gouders is an ideals-led cultural worker supporting artists, designers and cultural institutions in the realization of projects. She’s worked for several Dutch museums as a curator, project manager and registrar, shaping her as a researcher and ally in the production of artistic work and exhibitions. Her practice is connected by projects with a sensibility for social-political developments and impacts felt by the humans and non-humans she works and co-exists with.
How is power distributed and exercised in the European Union? Can individuals influence that power? And if so, how? With the unique artistic research project "Soft Power," we invited residents of Brabant to explore the inner workings of the European Union.
Participants in Soft Power took on the role of Brabant lobbyists, who, for a common goal, need forms of "soft power" to gain EU officials' support.
For an hour, they delved into the world of the EU in the Pop-up Parliament, and were given the tools to learn how the EU actually works. There, they discovered the roles needed to make a lobbying plan successful at the European level.
Soft Power was developed by Myrthe Krepel, concept development and design in collaboration with Pauline Wiersema.
