Strategies of Relationality is a self-organised, para-academic study group for relational practices in art, design and educa- tion. As an open, horizontal and organic group, it fosters social and contextual engagement by the means of practice-based and alternative education. The study group was the result of a seminar series I organised together with Curdin Tones and Diogo Rinaldi at the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in 2019. Ever since, the group organised weekly study meetings, participated in two exhibitions, produced a textile of instruction-based exercises and collaboratively designed a website to document the group’s activities over time. After various challenges caused by the ef- fects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the group currently is in a state of hibernation.
