Abstract

This study examines TakeMoreCare, an artist-led feedback platform in Germany’s freelance performing arts scene. Using constructivist grounded theory, it analyses TMC’s role in addressing gaps in post-educational support, economic barriers, and fragmented feedback structures. Situating TMC within broader discussions on artistic discourse, institutional critique, and digital labour, the study explores how artists navigate self-education, peer exchange, and knowledge production. It also examines the impact of digital tools, engaging with contemporary critiques of digital privatisation and reflections on institutional entrapment. The research was presented as a lecture performance, exploring how knowledge is communicated and embodied. This format reinforced the study’s themes of discursivity and digital entanglement while serving as a performative inquiry into how institutional and digital frameworks influence artistic thought and practice. Findings are primarily descriptive, outlining the structure and function of TMC, while also exploratory in investigating how digitality, self-organisation, and collective discourse creation intersect. The study ultimately positions TMC as a rehearsal ground for agency, offering insights into how artists can intervene in and reshape the discursive conditions of their practice beyond institutional confines.
