d_d is a multidisciplinary group of artists, designers, social practitioners, cooks and researchers.
We are cultural practitioners, and much of our work is politically driven, focusing on issues such
as acts of solidarity, accessibility, decolonization, and housing rights. Concerning our art or design practices, we frequently collaborate with individuals and organizations involved in food, film, theater, music, and social justice.
Collectively we organize events, radio broadcasts, workshops, bar nights, dinners, and various forms of gatherings. Our activities are carried out collaboratively by members of the group as well as outside collaborators.
The group met during our course at Sandberg Instituut, and have been sharing a studio for almost two years. Our studio was located at Old School Amsterdam, where we also took part in caring for the building and organizing with other residents, and reaching out to the community in the neighborhood.
Since November 2020, individuals from D_D have come together to organize events such as food gatherings, film clubs, workshops and making sessions in various fields of expertise, such as print-making, language conversations, radio shows, and celebrations.
