TASC Studio Kitchen.
2016- 2018.
Social choreography, conversation, food.
TASC is the collaborative practice of Amber Ablett and Stacy Brafield, working together between 2013 and 2019.
Between 2016 and 2018, TASC ran TASC Studio Kitchen as an open-studio and cafe within Hordaland Kunstsenter as a permanent space in which to research conversation-as-art and social codes within the space.
We envisioned the studio as a place for thought, experimentation and investigation and as a bridge between the exhibitions and the audiences to the art centre.

Through the open studio we hosted a number of events in collboration with other creative and educational organisations in Bergen, and the space became a meeting point for many people.
The cafe operated on a trust system, creating a new dynamic and removing the cost-exchange relationship with guests, bringing the focus back to the shared space.
TASC worked closely with Bergen Assembly, a triannial art festival held in Bergen, to explore and research ideas of radical hospitality.
