A studio shaped by softness, community, and experimentation
Impressions from Katie Kearn’s Studio
Soft Power Studios began as a response to the fast, extractive pace of contemporary art culture—a desire for a slower, more attentive space for making.
Founded in Berlin, our studio brings together artists who value curiosity over productivity, care over competition, and process over polished outcomes.
Here, softness is a form of agency.
Together, we practice listening, resist urgency, and make room for alternative ways of working and being together.
What Matters to Us
Softness
Softness is not the opposite of power; it's a different kind-one that moves intentionally, attunes deeply, and carries complexity with care.
Exploration
The studio becomes a space for play and experimentation, where failure, risk, and curiosity emerge as tools.
Community
We value collective ways of working and believe in sharing knowledge, resources, and support with reciprocity.
Access & Care
We strive to make our space welcoming, adaptable, and attentive to different bodies, needs, and experiences. Care guides everything we do.
