About the part that art plays in a globalising society

Crisis Imaginaries

Crisis Imaginaries is a project in collaboration with Goethe Instituut Niederlande. It explores the climate and ecological crises through participatory research and from intersectional perspectives--across sociocultural backgrounds as well as fields of practice: art, science, academia and activism. Reckoning with colonial-imperial roots, we seek to deepen our understanding of a present defined by extinction and environmental destruction and a future bracing for climate collapse. The series of public programs promotes spaces of listening and knowledge/resource sharing in an effort to move toward a more climate just society.
