The Pulp Collective
The Pulp Collective is a transdisciplinary art collective. Through different formats of artistic practice, such as workshops, exhibitions and events, we critically engage with existing norms and power structures. The term PULP represents the residues that ferment and cling on, serving as a metaphor for social and political structures, which we seek to engage with collectively.
Previous events organised by the collective include I AM EVERY WITCH, a multimedia exhibition that explored the ties between feminist resistance histories and ecological renewal, hosted at Villa Vida Vienna in March 2024. Followed by GAZE, a participatory exhibition featuring 17 international contributors, held in Barcelona in March 2025. In December 2025, the collective designed and facilitated the Sound of Silence, a participatory workshop that critically engaged with various forms and mechanisms of censorship. This workshop has been hosted in multiple cities already, including Amsterdam, The Hague, Vienna and Zurich.
Texture of Silence
with Nyata Collective
A workshop created together by the Nyata Collective and the Pulp Collective. This workshop explores censorship as an embodied everyday experience, as it materializes through textiles. We seek to engage with textiles as not solely aesthetic objects but as sites where censored voices, power relations and acts of resistance become tangible and manifest. We look at censorship as it is carried on our bodies through the clothes we wear, the textures we seek or avoid, and how we engage with the material world. We reflect on the parts of our identity that we hide in our daily lives in order to feel safe.
The workshop engages with the questions:
What does silence preserve in the material world, and how do textures, fabrics and clothes register, carry, or embody what is unspoken? How do the textures of textiles feel on our bodies? What stories are they telling?

This workshop explores censorship as a deeply rooted everyday experience. It invites you to discover the many layers through which censorship shapes our reality: often invisibly, yet with profound force.
What remains unsaid? What does silence preserve? Which ideology and hegemonic structure does censorship protect?
Censorship is not only imposed from the outside; it is also internalised. We censor ourselves in conversations with colleagues, in families, at work, among friends, and online. We hide parts of our identity to feel safe. This workshop traces censorship from the visible (laws, state control, institutional violence) to the invisible (social codes, self-censorship, silence, the unspoken).

The Archive of the Unspoken
An archive to make the invisible visible and challenge the assumption that freedom of expression is self-evident. Revealing that power is exercised not only through what is said, but equally through what remains unseen and unspoken.
