Newly migrated into a university and an open-plan campus building, an art school feels cornered by a suffocating culture of surveillance and administration. Staff and students find ways to subvert control through secret operations. Drawing on her own experiences as an art teacher, Oslo-based Ane Hjort Guttu explores what you trade away when creativity is replaced by order, and provides us with action plans for how to be the playful rebel.
