Domestic Research Society

The Domestic Research Society (DRS) was established in 2004 by visual artists Alenka Pirman and Damijan Kracina, and art historian Jani Pirnat. Under the motto "nothing of that which is domestic is alien to us" the society documents, collects, researches and presents domestic phenomena as installations, exhibitions or web projects related to the field of culture, art, science, conservation, and education.

Alongside a spoken Slovenian collaborative online dictionary Razvezani jezik - The Unleashed Tongue, launched in 2004 (and closed in 2019), the team has conceived several engaging visual arts projects, the Word for Word, Without Words, an interdisciplinary exhibition in City Art Gallery Ljubljana, or the Animal Dance Macabre that commemorates the animals in the World War One.
