“A Class Event” is the first project organized by Forum Ceblang Ceblung in 2013. The “class” took place in Sangkring Art Space, Yogyakarta, as the first initiative to bring the forum to the public. In this class event, we divided the gallery space into two parts: the main floor we used as a room for discussions, presentations, and workshops, taking the shape of a real classroom. The second floor we dedicated to the works, as stockroom, laboratory and studio of this project.
We felt the need to give the opportunity to more people to get involved in this project and we have decided on this because all of our members agree on the fact that we are here to learn from and to teach each other.
In this project, there is no one who becomes the teacher or the knowledge agent in each of the discussions, but rather we all, as participants, learn and take turns. That is why we have chosen the name of “class” – to express the idea of a group of people who mutually teach and learn from each other
